    After moving to AIX 6.1 from 5.3, the numeric keypad stopped working in aixterm.

    It works in xterm, dtterm and xcalc. It does not work in xcalendar.

    I have compared xmodmap -kp and teminfo. I have also checked the system keyboard settings.

    When I set vt102 to true I have the numeric keypad again but I of course then look a lot of terminal functionality. That also changes other keyboard strings which messes up my EXINIT settings.

    I have gone so far as to copy the aixterm binary from AIX 5.3 with no success.

    I have googled extensively and searched the forums here finding no solution.

    What am I missing?
