Hi,

I have the same problem and updated to Hardy, but it did not help.
Using the gconf-editor and searching for numlock I found "numlock_remember_state" and "numlock_on".
"numlock_remember_state" let Ubuntu remember the "numlock_on" state from xsession to xsession. But "numlock_on" just change the baviour of an activated numpad:

numlock_on = true:
active -> you can type digits
inactive -> you can type letters

numlock_on = false:
active -> you can use numpad as arrows (u = left, o = right, 8 = up, etc.)
inactive -> you can type letters

The problem that I have is, that I cannot change the state of the LED with my keyboard (shift + numlock) and that the numpad is per default active (either I can typ digits or I can use arrows).

Greetz,
EmmeDa
