not sure what package this bug is really in. All I know is that it is very annoying for me.
Ever since I upgraded to gutsy has the numlock key on the internal keyboard of my Thinkpad X24 lost its function while in Gnome. gdm login is still fine, but once login is complete, numlock is on and cannot be turned off without the help of numlockx or an external keyboard. Numlock on an external keyboard works fine. Shift + ScrollLock on the internal keyboard does not, which is very unfortunate while on the road.
I unsuccessfully tried xmodmap and "keycode 77 = Num_Lock" in ~/.Xmodmap. I also tried gconfeditor to suppress it remembering numlock state, but if I recall correctly that only worked for a few days. tpb is installed and running, /etc/tpbrc contains no uncommented entries.
