Now if I try to use those with a arrow key on them (i.e. KP_2, 4, 6 and 8), they do not work. Instead, one of the following bindings (i.e. the one matching the number) triggers: bindsym $mod+Left focus left bindsym $mod+Down focus down bindsym $mod+Up focus up bindsym $mod+Right focus right The problem is, numlock is definitely turned on. The others (e.g. KP_1) work, although they have other keys on them in there non-numlocked mode too. If I map the workspace commands to the same keys but with an additional +Shift+, it works flawlessly too. If I check on them with xev while in an empty mode (so i3 cannot intercept anything), they return their correct code to (KP_*), even in combination with Mod4. I really don't know where stuff goes wrong and think this might be a bug. I run 4.10.2 straight from Archs packages.
