I would say this is an Opie bug indeed. Looks like they internally 
mapped the arrows to the numpad somehow...
Sounds like a "numlock" problem... I'm not using Opie so I don't know if 
you can change this there. But if you can't, you should try to find a 
way of manually toggling the numlock status. I know you can do this by 
cat "1" > /proc/<somewhere_i_cant_remember> something and see if it 
makes a difference. Google will help ;)

Good Luck.
