I'm running Debian and the numeric keypad 1-9 keys do not work at
all. Searching the archives I found this advice for the problem:

Adam,
This is where these are defined on my system
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB. But make sure that you have a link to
them from here also /usr/X386/lib/X11/XKeysymDB. If for some reason
you don't have this file (XKeysymDB) a good copy of it comes with
Netscape that you can copy over to these locations.
Hope this helps,
K.R.
On my Debian box there is no /usr/X386 directory but I have
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB and /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB and they are
correct.
This is really frustrating because my app is a tic-tac-toe game that
I'm writing for CS255 and the only keys I really need on the keyboard
are the 1-9 keypad ones. All other keypad keys like '0' which I don't
need actually work!
