Try
Numlock on, off, on

If your keyboard is still not working properly, try running in the terminal:
Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
then reboot your system.
This is from the Ubuntu 8.10 release notes:

I know you said you are running Ubuntu 9.04, but I think this still applies to the newer versions of Ubuntu after 8.10.

It does work fine for Debian 6.0.5 (Linux d 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP Sun May 6 04:01:19 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux) with a HP Pavilion DV8000 (DV8211EA).
