English Install/Boot/Login
#1

Hi … I wonder if this is the right sub-forum

anyway

I quite often play around with beta releases. Sometime the Screen freezes. (so what)

However is there a key-stroke ctrl-?-? to get to a login prompt ???(rather then press the reboot button) ???

Thanks

Ctrl-Alt-Backspace-Backspace in openSUSE.

Hi,

  1. CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE: restarts x
  2. CTRL+ALT+Fn: switch to console n (where n is in [1,6])
  3. press and release each of R,E,I,S,U,B whilst holding ALT+sysRq to
    restart when the system is not responding to anything else (you must
    enable this from YaST)
