Umm, Karl,

Having numlock and capslock keys on the keyboard has nothing to do
with this.. he's asking about a way to visually see if either is
enabled (as his system does not have the typical LED indicators).  And
no, that's NOT normal.  MOST systems, laptop or otherwise, DO have LED
indicators that indicate whether Caps Lock, Num Lock, or Scroll Lock
are active.

I hate to ask, but do you even understand what the OP is asking about?

And OP, you can use gKrellm for a lot more than that, and it's
actually a quite useful tool (plus you can pin it to desktops and have
it sit below any open window so it doesn't get in they way.  It's
invaluable for monitoring system usage and figuring out when something
is not working right (like Firefox chewing up 100% of one or more CPU
cores, for example).

but here's a possible solution for you too:
