Spoke too soon. I added "xset fp rehash" to my .vnc/xstartup file to make sure it was run every time vncserver was started. The first time I connected to the vncserver and ran xdosemu, the keypad numeric keys worked. The next time I connected, the keypad numeric keys did not work. The keypad was functionally stuck in the numlock off position even if the numlock light was on. Restarting vnc did not fix the problem. It appears that when you exit xdosemu, something to do with keypad settings is altered or reset. The only way I could get numlock work reliable was to make sure numlock was off before starting xdosemu. Once in dosemu, I could activate numlock and then the numeric keypad worked fine. Is this a bug in xdosemu?
