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.
Doesn't work, at least, not reliably. Once, I pressed AltGr+SysRq, let them go and pressed s and got a proper response. Once. Quite possibly because it didn't need it again. However, I just went back to that console and now it's working. Go know. The important thing is, I now know that it has to be the right Alt, not the left, and to try several times if it doesn't respond the first time. Thanx. If and when I get another lockup, I'll try it, starting, of course, with r to get proper control of the keyboard.
