No. You press these two keys, hold it down, and add the other keys while you are holding AltGr+Sysrq. The AltGr key is most probably the right Alt key. I have a standard norwegian keyboard and have no clue how yours look like :-) The AltGr key is next to the space key on the right side in my case. Open a console, try holding down the AltGr+Sysrq with your right hand and press "s" with your left. This combination forces an emergency sync (fsync) and does not harm. You should see a message on the screen. If you encounter a hang/freeze in X, you won't see anything, but in most cases it works. You'll see the effect when your system reboots after pressing "B". In some cases, you can see something in /var/log/messages after bringing up your system again. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
