I have the same problem. I am running RH7.2 (which does all I ask of it, so 
I have not upgraded. When it fails me then I'll do something about it.)

I have been in and checked the BIOS and it is set for NumLock ON in the 
boot options. However once RH boots (it is a dedicated Linux machine) 
NumLock is turned off. It is a pain to this not-so-young person who forgets 
to check before entering numbers!

Is there a solution within Linux?

Thanks
