Alt + SysR + K
Kill all processes (including X), which are running on the currently active virtual console.
Alt + SysRq + E
Send the TERM signal to all running processes except init, asking them to exit.
Alt + SysRq + I
Send the KILL signal to all running processes except init.
Alt + SysRq + L
Send the KILL signal to all processes, including init.
Alt + SysRq + S
Run an emergency sync (cache write) on all mounted filesystems. This can prevent data loss.
Alt + SysRq + U
Remount all mounted filesystems as read-only. This has the same effect as the sync combination above, but with one important benefit: if the operation is successful, fsck won’t have to check all filesystems after a computer hardware reset.
Alt + SysRq + R
Turn off keyboard raw mode. This can be useful when your X session hangs. After issueing this command you may be able to use .
Alt + SysRq + B
Reboot immediately without syncing or unmounting your disks. Using this, you will likely end up with filesystem errors, so this is not highly recommended.
Alt + SysRq + O
Shut the system off right away.
