Just a wild idea, but if the main keyboard has a numlock key, try
toggling it and use the keypad. The system may be treating the keypad as
cursor control.
Hmmm, the numbers are indeed acting as navigation control in a gedit document.
So what I need is a software numlock. Maybe some kind of conf file setting.
