I have to press the - Num Lock button twice to turn the light back on. The Num Lock does work - properly, inserting numbers when pressing the keys, even with the - indicator light off. This occurred on two different machines: a Dell - Vostro 430 and a Lenovo m57. + to open the terminal) the Num Lock light turns off. The Shift key also + has this effect.
