You can control the Mouse with the Number-KeyPad and it works from scratch in Sarge and up.Just in Java though I guess? I can't believe xfce allows me to do that - in fact I know it doesn't, I just tried :)
Not, not just in Java. And yes, xfce4 does allow this (I just tested it).But, (and here's probably where your problem is), the feature has to be activated.
You can activate/deactivate mouse-keys with Shift-NumLock (you should hear a speaker beep). Now your number-pad should function as a mouse-controller.
