As far as I remember, Fedora has it compiled in, but the standard is "disabled". Look in /etc/sysctl.conf after "kernel.sysrq", and if it's set to 0 or not present, add "kernel.sysrq = 1" and do a "sysctl -p" as root afterwards.
Yes. I did that when I set it up, and after rebooting to start the new kernel, I made sure that it was set correctly. It is. Now, by "pressing and holding down AltGr+Prt(SysRq)" do you mean that I hold those two keys down, let go and then press the other key? It's not clear, because I'm not sure exactly what I did to get a proper response. And, what does "AltGr" mean? Is it either Alt key, the left one or the right one? Again, I managed to make it respond a few times, but I'm not really sure what I did. Much better to practice now, and learn how to make it work reliably rather than wait for an emergency and hope I can get it to respond!
