I'd like to second Sergio's problem with the NumLock. Switching layouts turns numlock off (kind of). More precisely:

The digits except 5 work as arrow/home/etc. keys, but 5 inserts a literal 5. This is a weird mixture I've never seen before and I can't see any rationale whatsoever. Pressing NumLock once turns it off completely (5 does nothing), pressing once again turns it on. So I actually have to press it twice to switch it on.

I want to have my NumLock on all the time (I use the keypad for typing digits, never as arrows). I switch layouts very often, sometimes even like once per minute or so. Having to press NumLock twice every time after such a switch in unacceptable for me.

I don't have a NumLock LED, I can't tell how that would be lit.
