Is the numlock light on the keyboard on or off?

Run "xev" from a terminal, put the mouse cursor over its window, and 
press keys on the number pad.  Watch its output in the terminal.  What 
key does it indicate?  This is the number 0 key-down event:

KeyPress event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x2e00001,
     root 0x2ac, subw 0x0, time 86098050, (193,439), root:(281,593),
     state 0x0, keycode 19 (keysym 0x30, 0), same_screen YES,
     XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (30) "0"
     XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (30) "0"
     XFilterEvent returns: False
