Bug Description
Numeric keyboard with Fn key fail: Instead of numbers I get scrolling functions (insert, home, end....). But with NumBlock it works as expected. Decimal and operations always work fine.
Spain/Spanish keyboard.
According to https:/
Manufacurer: Hewlett-Packard
Product name: HP Compaq nx6110 (PY500ET#ABE)
Version: F.0B
Using xev for hotkey.
WITHOUT NUMBLOCK
0. Number 0 expected with Fn+M, got nothing, Keycode 90 KP_Insert. Fn+Cap+M does 'Paste' in Kubuntu, but correctly types number 0 in Ubuntu. Insert key itself is not working in Kubuntu.

4. Number 4 expected with Fn+U got 'Left', Keycode 83 KP_Left. Fn+Cap+U correctly types number 4.
5. Number 5 expected with Fn+I, got nothing, Keycode 84 KP_Begin. Fn+Cap+I correctly types number 5.
6. Number 6 expected with Fn+O, got 'Next', Keycode 85 KP_Right. Fn+Cap+O correctly types number 6.
7. Number 7 expected with Fn+7, got 'Next', Keycode 79 KP_Home. Fn+Cap+7 correctly types number 7.
8. Number 8 expected with Fn+8, got 'Next', Keycode 80 KP_Up. Fn+Cap+8 correctly types number 8.
9. Number 9 expected with Fn+9, got 'Next', Keycode 81 KP_Prior. Fn+Cap+9 correctly types number 9.

Thank you for submitting this bug report.
I believe the the lack of numbers when pressed with the num lock off is suppose to have functions such as insert, end and so forth. If you look at a normal 104 keyboard those functions are to be expected with the numlock off. I tested this on my Dell Inspiron 1420 and it functions just like your keyboard. I went ahead and labeled this bug as invalid, if you still believe that it is a valid bug then please reopen it.
I have also let the evdev team know about this bug in case I am wrong.
