Dear Managers,

Many many thanks to Simon Tardell <tardell_at_particle.kth.se>. He pointed
out that the numlock key was assigned to a modifer. I made up a new
.keymap (because a few other key were acting weird too). Now everything
is working fine.

Check out xmodmap(1). Probably Num_Lock is assigned to a modifier. Clear it.
xmodmap -e clear Mod4, f.ex. The default keymaps are in /usr/lib/X11/keymaps/.
