I confirm what Naveen says about the numlockx behavior in my T42 with ubuntu feisty. I found a not-so-elegant solution. If you go to System -> Preferences -> Keyboard -> Layouts -> Keyboard model, I have a Generic 105-key (Intl) PC. Change that to IBM ThinkPad 560Z/600/600E/A22E, Intl. Now this gets very tricky. Press Shift+NumLk then type "numlockx toggle" (type this before Shift+NumLk in the terminal, otherwise the keys with number won't work) and now your numlock keys work. Shift+NumLk again and you recover the normal keyboar state but the led is still on. I tried this several time and it not always work in the same way. Sometimes you don't need the Shift+NumLk before the 'numlockx toggle' command... It is still anoying.
