Q: The numeric keypad keys don't work as expected.
A: This is a known "feature" of the default
keyboard mapping woth XFree86. The cure is to change
the default mappings like in the example below:
#!/bin/sh
# This script makes the numeric keypad constantly
# active.
# After the NUM_LOCK key has no more meaning.
xmodmap -e "keycode 79 = KP_7"
xmodmap -e "keycode 80 = KP_8"
xmodmap -e "keycode 81 = KP_9"
xmodmap -e "keycode 83 = KP_4"
xmodmap -e "keycode 84 = KP_5"
xmodmap -e "keycode 85 = KP_6"
xmodmap -e "keycode 87 = KP_1"
xmodmap -e "keycode 88 = KP_2"
xmodmap -e "keycode 89 = KP_3"
xmodmap -e "keycode 90 = KP_0"
xmodmap -e "keycode 91 = comma"
