On some of my newer Ubuntus, the number keypad /, *, -, and + keys don't work. If I quit tmux and just use a regular ol' Putty SSH session, they do.



  • Ubuntu 14 tmux 1.8 works

  • Ubuntu 16 tmux 2.1 works

  • Ubuntu 18 tmux 2.6 doesn't work

Is there an option I can use in a tmux.conf file to restore that behavior?



I briefly RTFM and don't see pertinent info. Searching the man page for "number" returns too many results, as does "star" (false positive "start")
