I'm not that blind:P For sure it's on but it has no effect, whatever I do with it. I use kde-3.4 now - maybe sth cuz of it?

It's only in KDE, where the problem occurs.
Anyone had come across sth like that?

Happens in kde-3.4 only and only on some of the account, so it's related to the configuration. Removing ~/.kde should help but haven't tried yet.

Shift+NumLock toggles the ability to move the mouse cursor with the numpad. Maybe you hit that by accident.

In my case many permutations of keys do not affect KDE+numpad.
In the interim I am using Gnome. Numpad OK there.....

Thanks, this solved it for me too. I kept messing with numlock, looking through KDE settings, cussing, couldn;t figure it out till now.
