Hi Leonardo.  My keyboard acted differently also.  I don't know why your
NUM LOCK key isn't working specifically, but I recommend comparing the
outputs of "xmodmap -pk" under XFree86 and fdo's Xserver.  Also, try
running "xev" in an xterm and pressing NUM LOCK to see what keycode it
generates.

I hope that helps.
