I believe this is a BIOS issue.
I have fixed it by entering the BIOS (pressing the blue ThinkVantage
button during boot) and editing the following configuration:
Hit F1 to enter the BIOS Setup Utility
Enter: 'Config' menu ->
Enter: 'Keyboard/Mouse' menu ->
Edit: 'ThinkPad NumLock' [from Independent to Synchronized]
Reboot the computer and run:
sudo input-events -t30 3" and press "Fn+NmLk
You should receive outputs for each press:
/dev/input/event3
