I was having the same problem on my Thinkpad R51.  I found a solution
that worked for me here:  http://kogs-www.informatik.uni-
hamburg.de/~meine/thinkpad under the section "Making the Numlock work
again".

Basically just run this command (I put it in my .bash_profile so it is
applied every time I boot):

xmodmap -e "keycode 77 = Num_Lock"

Hope it works for you guys.
