I've seen you guys talk about this and I've never had to use it. I'm |
| 17 |
curious about the actual key strokes. Is it |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Alt-SysRq and then REISUB |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
or |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Alt-SysRq followed by Atl-R, Atl-E, etc.. ? |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I assume the first but it would be nice to know if I ever have to use it. |
| 26 |

Thanks, |
