If xev (x11-apps/xev) shows generated events and a keycodes when you
press these keys (on either KB), you can bind them for any purpose you
wish (including KP_*) via xmodmap (x11-apps/xmodmap). Just hack
together an ~/.xmodmaprc file, looking like this:

  keycode 100 = KP_4
  keycode 102 = KP_6
  keycode 98 = KP_8
  keycode 104 = KP_2
  ...

and add 'xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc' line to some X/WM init script.
Note that the keycodes probably won't be the same for you, but you can
get them from xev output.
