Kubuntu keypad does not work

I’ve an ACER Aspire laptop, but I usually use it with an external keyboard and mouse. However sometimes I need to use its builtin keyboard, and I had having problems with numeric keypad in Kubuntu for a long time. Now I’ve found the solution:

shift+ctrl+numlock

With that, the function “keyboard cursors” -that I think is for moving mouse with keyboard- that conflicts with the normal use of keypad can be dissabled.

I think this option should be dissabled by default after a fresh installation, but it is not… anyway I publish this for the record and for others with the same problem.
