My primary machines are on gutsy gibbon, so no problem testing on that.

I just tried your capslock/numlock idea, and they behave exactly the
same as if I pressed any other key (well, except the fn key I guess).
This is on a laptop, so for the numlock I had to use an external
keyboard to type the lettered password, and for caps lock I actually
activated it before suspending, so when I unsuspended the capslock
deactivated when I first pressed it; and then I could type in the
password without problems.

So, in short, it seems the system needs some kind of first keyboard
stroke to "wake" the keyboard, no matter what that stroke is; however,
if it's capslock/numlock, that first stroke will ALSO
activate/deactivate caps/numlock.

Any idea where the root of the problem might lie?
