You _may_ see the output from sysrq in an xterm _IFF_ you are running the xconsole variant (-C). sysrq output gets sent to the console, either VGA or framebuffer (if you've got a video card) or serial console (if you've set that up). Not in X. I saw a wise piece of advice somewhere: Kernel programming and X don't mix. -- "Learning curve encryption is much more powerful than eliptical curve encryption." -- Alan Olsen
