regarding keyboard shortcuts

I seem to be having a couple of problems in trying to get keyboard shortcuts
that I had under KDE3.5 working under KDE4.2.  I will give you the one that
bothering me the most, today.

It's the use of the 2, 4, 6, and 8 keys on the numeric keypad (the ones which
have the arrows on them).  They were announced under the old regime as KP2, KP4,
KP6, and KP8, but in my latest, it seems to be naming the keys indentically to
the small application -cursor keys to the immediate left of the numeric keypad
(I don't know the name of that little 4 key area), so they're announced as "up",
"down", "left", and "right", and it won't let me use those numeric keypad keys.
 Since the name is the same, I can't seem to grab those arrow keys in the
numeric keypad, at all.  I wish to switch up, down, left, and right for
desktops, considering that I run 9 in a 3x3 physical matrix.

Yes, I can use mouse movements, but I've grown used to using keystrokes, and I
like it (even without all the nice eye candy).
