(Note that this is straight from the man page for setleds.)
For X, you need to edit the file '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/types/basic'. The
last section of the file is the "KEYPAD" section and looks like:
type "KEYPAD" {
modifiers = Shift+NumLock;
map[None] = Level1;
map[Shift] = Level2;
map[NumLock] = Level2;
map[Shift+NumLock] = Level1;
level_name[Level1] = "Base";
level_name[Level2] = "Number";
To set NUMLOCK on by default, simply change every occurrence of "Level1" to
"Level2" and change every occurrence of "Level2" to "Level1" (without the
quotes). Then restart X. Note that the behavior of the NUMLOCK light will
change as well (i.e. the light will be lit when NUMLOCK is OFF and will be
dark when NUMLOCK is ON).
