The keyboard LED problem is in xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1.2 and higher
(which shipped as a part of Xorg 7.3). Ubuntu 7.10 is a hybridization
of X.org 7.2 and 7.3 according to this page:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/x11/

The upstream bug is here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12434

That appeared from your description to be what the question was about.

As for your problem toggling the NUMLOCK key in software to OFF by
default, this is Gnome bug. Open configuration editor and go to this
path to fix it:

/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/host-hostname-desktop/0/numlock_on
