Solaris 9, Gnome2.0 and the gnome terminal program

[bxrluvr2002]

When using the Gnome Terminal program, with my "num lock" on, my 10-key
keypad still acts like the arrow keys on the keyboard. I can't find
anything in the terminal config to turn this on. When is netscape or any
other program the keypad works fine. When I go back to Solaris CDE the
keypad works fine.

Anyone else run into this?

I can certainly re-create it (Solaris 8, Gnome 2.0 FCS, all latest
patches). And a little Googling seems to suggest that folks running
gnome-terminal on Linux also have that problem. I saw some hints
of a workaround, but wasn't interested enough to keep looking enough
longer to actually find the workaround, let alone test it.
