Hi Andrew,

It seems that I've found keyboard with the same problem.
On my keyboard turning numeric keypad off by NumLock button restores
arrow keys map. I suppose it is a keyboard mapping problem and only
solution here is to switch the NumLock.
Many PC BIOSes have a setting in their setup screens for forcing NumLock
on/off or it is possible switch NumLock by stty utility.
I've added these lines to the sysinit (after tinit) for all my three
consoles.
stty +numlock < /dev/con1
stty +numlock < /dev/con2
stty +numlock < /dev/con3

I hope this would help you.

Regards,
Pavel
