Use this glue code instead:

  xmodmap -e "keysym Num_Lock = "

I must say it has a certain appeal not to see the ugly light.
But before enabling this automatically, check whether the
desktop is not starting up with NumLock enabled.

I am tempted to define it as second Caps Lock now:

  xmodmap -e "keycode 77 = Caps_Lock"


(Please, kids, do not do this at work on your neighbor's
 machine.)


Have a nice day :)
