btw. what version of gnome-term are u using?

because for me:

gnome-term-2.0.x ... works fine... afaik it uses libzvt
gnome-term-2.1.x ... arrows doesn't work when num-lock is on... afaik it
uses vte


when i sent a mail about this problem, frederic-crozat replied that it's
a known bug with vte..... i don't know how could the vte-developers not
spot it btw...

bye,
gabor
