Okay, here's a strange one I have yet to find an answer for. 

When I am in Gnome, my laptop keyboard takes on a virtual ten-key arrangement 
on a portion of its alphabetic keyboard. The laptop in question is an 
ultra-portable with no separate ten-key setup on the right). So far, I have not 
found a control either physical or in software to revert to the standard layout.

I mostly use a wireless keyboard and mouse, which does not have this 
problem--and it doesn't happen when I am in any of the other graphical 
environments such as Enlightenment, LXDE, KFCE, or KDE (although since an 
"upgrade" a few weeks back there are other issues with KDE I have not yet 
addressed). I haven't tried Fluxbox as yet, but since so far Gnome is the only 
one with this issue on the same machine I presume it is a Gnome issue.

I am using Ubuntu 10.10; the machine is an ASUS UL30a.

Have any of you folks run into this situation, and if so, how did you resolve 
it?

Since I do have alternatives, I haven't spent as much time as I might have to 
try to chase down all the possiblilties yet, especially since we're only about 
a month out from the 11.04 release. However, I am turning back to it today to 
see if I can't find out what is going on. Thus far, I haven't found it in the 
Gnome docs and howtos, and have not yet been successful in finding a discussion 
anywhere in which this has come up.

Therefore, if you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

David
