Ctrl-Alt-F1 -- switches to first virtual console Ctrl-Alt-Del -- standard shutdown/reboot Make sure that the shutdown line in /etc/inittab says -h rather than -r, otherwise it will just reboot. Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't work in X; that's why you have to switch to a console screen first. -- Oliver Elphick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver GPG: 1024D/A54310EA 92C8 39E7 280E 3631 3F0E 1EC0 5664 7A2F A543 10EA ======================================== "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me."
