If numlock is pressed, it switches to the alternate arrow keys etc. If pressed again, it does not switch back to numbers. It continues using the alternate arrow keys. Since the VNC protocol lacks numlock sync, I recommend that you have numlock off in the Xvnc session. If you fail to locate what's activating numlock, you might want to try to removing Num_Lock from the xmodmap modifier map (ie xmodmap -e "remove mod2 = Num_Lock"). There's also a "numlockx" utility.This provides a quick fix in that it never switches to the alternate arrow keys. This will work for my uses but is different from TightVNC 1.3.x behavior. Thank you for the command. It is much shorter and simpler than the full remapping I was doing.
