The exact same bug is present in Intrepid, also Debian Lenny. Also with vanilla 2.6.28.6. Same behavior with NumLock, the only fix is adding "i8042.dumbkbd=1" to the kernel command lines. I believe this is a hardware issue, the i8042 keyboard/mouse controller chip is broken. This is a "showstopper" bug, however, as Solaris and other operating systems are able to work around it just fine.
