Description

In my Linux setup (v9.0.13.536), the arrow keys on the numeric keypad on the right side of the keyboard do nothing.

When I test them in
**Setup -> Detailed Setup -> Commands -> Show SageTV commands linked to Infrared/Keystroke**
the correct commands are linked to each one.

End, Home, PgUp and PgDn do work within SageTV, however.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Linux Placeshifter using Setup -> Detailed Setup -> Commands -> Show SageTV commands linked to Infrared/Keystroke, then compare numeric keypad arrow handling with End, Home, PgUp, and PgDn. Done means the numeric keypad arrow keys perform their linked SageTV commands in Placeshifter.
