keymap trouble

Hi. I'm trying to reconfigure the default keymap. Just to play around
for testing I reassigned the 8, 5 and 2 keypad keys to read previous
line, current line, and next line respectively. According to the codes
I should have done something like the following:
keycode 72 = 0x0d0b
keycode 76 = 0x0d0a
keycode 80 = 0x0d0c
However when I do loadkeys and the file with these assignments it does
not work. What I get when the keypad 8 is pressed is speakup saying
parked, I can press it again to unpark. When I press keypad-5 I hear
the whole screen read. I didn't even bother with keypad-2.
What I don't understand is that in reading the speakupmap.map file it
shows for example that key code 72 = 0x0d08 however according to the
code list 0x0d08 is for say previous word.
What am I missing? If it's something real obvious then I apologize.
PS I can type loadkeys /usr/src/linux/char/speakup/speakupmap.map to get
my functionality back.
