Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnucash
In Gutsy, keypad decimal key doesn't work out-of-the-box in register.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a Gnucash file with at least one account
2. Open an account
3. Try to create a new transaction with '42.42' in "Withdrawal" using the
keypad
Actual results:
Keypad decimal key does nothing (so you end up with '4242' when you try to
enter '42.42')
Expected results:
42.42 (or more precisely 42,42 since I use a the French locale)
Keypad decimal key should be mapped to the correct decimal character for the
locale ('.' or ',').
Does this happen every time?
Yes.

>From Gnome Keybord Properties : I use the "France Alternative" ("France
Autre" in french) layout.
Workaround :
If I use the "France" layout in Gnome Keybord Properties, it works.
I have already reported this bug upstream. It is still unclear whether it is a
gnucash bug or a layout one.
In any case, it should work out of the box.
