...no.  I switch over to the console or ssh in and kill the process.
Beating randomly on the keyboard isn't usually the answer.

Switch to the console on a machine with no function keys? Oh, granted, I probably should have assigned some. The network's non- functional too, and I don't know whether to blame the emulated eth over usb in the pda or myself for listening to that jackass in #slackware and recompiling my desktop kernel. I don't _think_ I left out support in the desktop (slackware box), and on the pda I _think_ I've done everything necessary to bring up the interface, but I'm sick of messing with it when it seems to break if you use anything but ifup to bring up the interface and transferring stuff via SD cards works fine, until I run this emulator which wants a very specific aspect ratio for its window.
