Thanks for your e-mail, Steve. Yes, <alt><printscreen><k> gives
a kernel panic on my machine.

Please note that in Console_7 (X graphics) SAK does not work!
That's quite a feat since the built-in SAK cannot be disabled
in text mode. But when you try <alt><printscreen> on the desktop
you are offered to save the screen as image.

Additionally, if you set up SAK on some other physical key,
that key does exactly nothing under X.

I'm saying that because OpenSuSe honours SAK in text mode but will 
crash X.


Regards
