When I first boot, the NumLock light is on, but the keyboard is actually in
NumLock OFF.  When I press the NumLock key, all three lights come on steady
and the NumLock function is enabled.  Further operation of the NumLock or
CapsLock keys does toggle the function of the keyboard, but the three lights
stay on forever until reboot.

I opened a console session with Ctrl-Alt-F1 and the behavior there was the
same.  I don't remember another way to get to a different run level.

I don't think this is the same problem you are dealing with.  I'm still
unsure what to report it against.
