Title:

I downloaded all the source packages listed in apt’s upgrade log
attached above in a lucid chroot, and I grep’ed through in search of
mousekeys (the gconf key that controls whether mouse keys are enabled
is /desktop/gnome/accessibility/keyboard/mousekeys_enable), but this
didn’t yield any result.
A recent ugrade on my mom’s machine running lucid (lsb_release says
10.04.2) turned on the mouse keys in keyboard accessibility by default,
when they were previously disabled. This had the very annoying
consequence of the numeric keypad apparently not functioning any longer,
and only by googling

I seem to have a related problem, but not quite the same. NumLock worked
fine on my prior USB keyboard (Inland Multimedia and Office keyboard
M/N: MC855692) until last week. All of a sudden, *nothing* would make
the number pad work again. I don't recall if this was right after an
update or not.
Oh, and I guess I should clarify that I'd been successfully using the
Inland keyboard since January of this year on two prior Ubuntu revs,
including toggling the numlock key. I tried the ctrl-alt-numlock, but
that didn't do anything. And if I disable x.org, my monitor won't work,
so I'm not even
Nevermind, found the answer ...

works perfectly. Must've pressed once on accident and didn't re-press it
accidently ;-)

This is a problem with Ubuntu, I have confirmed it across several models

This bug only occurs with USB keyboard. my ps2 keyboard does not
suffer from this issue.
The exact problem is that the usb keyboards's numlock state cannot be
changed via usb keyboard. ps2 keyboard can enable usb keyboard numlock

No, this issue hasn't been fixed.

Ran into the same problem.
Upgraded from an up-to-date Gutsy to Hardy yesterday. No alpha, beta or
RC versions of Hardy installed. Hardy distribution from the
ubuntu.mirrors.skynet.be mirror. Numpad broken after the upgrade.
Same solution: switch allow to control pointer using keyboard to off.
I also had this problem. My upgrade from Gutsy was a bit different,
though: I installed Hardy RC over my existing partitions, but preserving
/home.
I had to manually switch allow to control pointer using keyboard to
off.
My keyboard is a Lenovo USB one:
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 04b3:301b IBM Corp.
I upgraded to the latest ubuntu hardy yesterday.
Likewise, it was *still* activated by default.
