Public bug reported:
Numlock key does nothing under X11, although it works fine in a console.
The navigation keys of the numpad work fine in Emacs and Firefox, but
produce nothing or a visual bell under urxvt, and produce various
letters and symbols in Midnight Commander. Xev output is as expected.
If I press Shift-numlock, the navigation keys control the mouse pointer.
I understand that this is by design.
System info:
Release: 8.10
setxkbmap -print:
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete" };

xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
