Question on KDE4 and tasbar

[Donn]

Hi,
I don't know about KDE 4, but here's a way to restart a frozen computer in a 
safe way. A *last ditch* technique, one step before the power button!

I hope it works these days, it used to on Dapper:

Remember this line:
Raising Skinny Elephants Is Utterly Boring
or
Really Stupid Elephants In Ugly Boots

Here is how you do it, it's finger gymnastics:

Alt+SysRq+r  ( The LEFT Alt key ) ( SysRq is on the same button as print 
screen )
Alt+SysRq+s
Alt+SysRq+e
Alt+SysRq+i
Alt+SysRq+u
Alt+SysRq+b

NB:
***Give a little time between keystrokes.***

The r stands for put keyboard in raw mode
The s for sync the disk
The e for terminate all processes
The i for kill all processes
The u for remount all filesystems read only
The b for reboot the system


HTH
