Just for replying to all the latest questions that affect me, and have a
summary of my particular situation:


>> Please try turning off numlock from another keyboard.
That was done already (when I plugged another keyboard, numlock led was off)

>> And if you are talking about F* keys not working, that is the default 
>> behavior of these keyboards.
Uh, this is nonsense, it worked a week ago! And I bought this keyboard because 
it has comfortable keys, not because I want it to behave like a mac or 
something. I think most users under linux need the F* keys quite often, be it 
for F11 (fullscreen), F2 (rename), alt-F2, alt-F3 (deskbar), F1 (help), and so 
on.

>> be careful with the application numlockx.
I did not have numlockx installed.

>> Does your keyboard really have a numeric keypad?
Yes, my keyboard is the full-size version that comes with new iMacs and stuff 
like that. I am not using the wireless version.

>> So did these problems crop up for everyone right after the update to enable 
>> FN
key on the USB variety?
I don't know, I think this happened a week or so ago. Maybe after a kernel 
update. I find it quite funny that a keyboard needs a friggin' kernel driver, I 
did not know that until now :)


I did not try the workarounds or kernel patches, I want to use the "default 
that ubuntu offers" whenever possible.
