We recently switched from Solaris 10 SPARC to Solaris 10 x86 for our
Sun Ray servers, and noticed a great increase in performance.  One
change, though, was that the ten-key keypad on the left of the Sun
keyboards on our Sun Rays has stopped working.  I use the [Front] key
to move a window from the rear to the front or vise-versa, but this
has stopped working.  Instead, these keys generate character strings
on the screen.  Here's how they look in hex:

  0000000 x1b   [   2   3   ~ x1b   [   2   4   ~ x1b   [   2   5   ~ x1b
  0000010   [   2   6   ~ x1b   [   2   8   ~ x1b   [   3   1   ~ x1b   [
  0000020   3   3   ~  \n

What's gone wrong that these no longer work?  Sun workstations exhibit
the same problem when they were upgraded from SPARC to x86, all with
Sun keyboards.  I thought the two hardware platforms were supposed to
be identical.
