Is there an easy way of doing it? I tried to assign functions to the keys
within X and it showed the mapping is not unique. I remember for sure that
one of the 10 keys on the left hand side appeard to X as the keypad enter
key and if I remeber right I was only able to assign three out of the 10
keys.

Doomed if one lives in old Europe, with all the non-US Keys on the KB and
the slight difference of all the symbols with the numeric Keys in the top
row.

I would very much appreciate a fix for this, disconnecting the mouse after
every cold start is a mere workaround but not really a long term solution. 
Let me know if you need help testing, I am more than happy to do this.
