Alt-SysRq keys not responsive. - GUI froze on current display. Numlock and scrolllock lights flashing. Alt-SysRq keys not responsive. - GUI froze then faded to light blue. Could sync and reboot with Alt-SysRq keys. This is a serious issue as it consistently causes a kernel panic/crash and resulted in data loss on at least one attempt. I tried to reproduce the issue in a VirtualBox VM, but it worked fine there.
