Num-lock not working with de-neo2 keyboard-layout

[Matthias Bonora]

When having the German(neo2) keyboard layout selected, numlock is not working correctly:

* The numlock key does not allow tow toggle numlock state
* To toggle numlock on/off another layout has to be selected
* If numlock is activated FN keys are not working (only if neo2 layout is selected)
* FN keys work if Numlock is deactivated
* trying to activate numlock using numlockx gives the following error:

X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request: 132 (XTEST)
  Minor opcode of failed request: 2 (X_XTestFakeInput)
  Value in failed request: 0x0
  Serial number of failed request: 17
  Current serial number in output stream: 20

keyboard-layout: German(neo2)
keyboard-model: generic 104-Key PC
Linux Version: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Hardware: Samsung Chronos 7, 700Z5C-S02
