Title:
SysRq key equivalent needed
Status in Mactel Support:
New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
MacBook keyboards and other Apple keyboards lack a SysRq key and
therefore lack important kernel functionality that is designed to save
catastrophic data loss if the computer freezes. An equivalent
keystroke should be assigned, for example Fn + Eject, to preserve the
functionality of the Magic SysRq key in linux on a Mactel. I believe
this is a bug and not a feature request because the current
implementation assumes that all keyboards have a SysRq key which is an
incorrect assumption and therefore a mistake, or bug.
Workaround:
