How to deactivate shift+numpad=number? Ubuntu 19.10

  • 772

Hllo er1. I'm quite new whit Ubuntu, actually with whole Linux. I've gor a laptop without PageUp,PageDown, Home, End keys. Indeed, I need to deactivate the numpad almost everytime and activate it only when I want to write long numbers. Even, I got used to move with the numpad arrows.

Often, I need to select much code or text and ned to press Shit+PageDown or Shift+Arrow (in numpad). But, I end up writing numbers everywhere!

Everythig I want is to deactivate this Shift function. It is driving me mad.
