recovering from a dead battery, dead remote and dash instruments stuck on

[REBible]

I have 99 boxster. I left the lights on and ended up with a dead battery. I used the mechanical release, jump started and was on my way.

BUT..
1) the radio was now dead. I subsequently found a blown fuse, put the code in and voila everything on the radio is fine
2). The key fob no longer works. (I tried the standard reset: key unlock in the door, and then ignition on..It clunks all the locks like it is working but still no remote fob)
3). The instrument cluster stays active (digital speed, odometer and clock) until I manually lock the car with the key. When I do that it enables the alarm and turns of the instruments

I have seen these symptoms described but never a solution.. Does anybody have any ideas.

Everything was working fine before I left the lights on.
I have pulled the battery lead and to reset everything with no change in the symptoms.
I can not find any other blown fuse in fuse box.

thanks
