What do these commands display?

        C-h v term-file-prefix
        M-x getenv RET term RET

Assuming the values are "term/" and "gnome" respectively, and that Emacs was
configured and installed with the default prefix (/usr/local), there should
be a file called /usr/local/share/emacs/21.3/lisp/term/gnome.el with this in
it:

(define-key function-key-map "\eOo" [kp-divide])
(define-key function-key-map "\eOj" [kp-miltiply])
(define-key function-key-map "\eOm" [kp-add])
(define-key function-key-map "\eOk" [kp-subtract])

Putting that in your ~/.emacs, wrapped in this, would be a start:

(add-hook 'term-setup-hook
          (lambda ()
            ...)))
