The bug is still unsolved in 2012.
It happened two times to beginners that belong to my LUG.
In 2010:

Same problem here. Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit. The workaround is to hold

I am definitely not having this happen by pressing shift-numlock, but I
connect to this computer (Ubuntu 10.04) with VNC (Remote Desktop) every
day, so it seems likely that is triggering it somehow. Comment #52
contains a workaround, but that definitely isn't a bug fix.

Turbolad : Please read

help.
The biggest issue I've noticed is that this happens with Remote Desktop
enabled. Can anyone else confirm this?
I have a fresh install of 10.04 and had bug 549727 and this bug.

I've not had time to read the 65 posts above, but I've experienced this
same problem.
I hope someone can fix it for all Ubuntu/Linux users. It seems weird
that numlock sometimes moves the mouse instead of being a number pad.
I've not knowingly pressed SHIFT and num lock at the same time neither
@Reuben Firmin I agree with your comment.

Are you typing anywhere near the numpad when it turns on?
The notification that it is turning on would at least rule out your
assertion.

Ah, a comment in that thread is the key to this, I think - shift numlock
is the hotkey that turns the feature on and off. I bet that I've been
hitting that shortcut accidentally. Since it's such a destructive
shortcut (i.e. it wrecks the number pad's function) could this bug be
resolved by popping

This bug was reported against an earlier version of Ubuntu, can you

@Duvel
I already tried that, with no chance; moreover, if I enable the mousekeys by
activating the shortcut,
the option box (that is still unselected) seems to have no effect at all,
even enabling and then disabling it
and also closing any window trying to enforce the new setting. Thanks anyway
Ok, this bug may still have a low priority but it's still annoying me and I
can't help reporting about it. Right now I'm experimenting something I couldn't
test before (because I didn't have the chance to physically access the machine
when it occurred):
