description |
MacBook keyboards and other Apple keyboards lack a SysRq key and therefore lack important kernel functionality that is designed to save catastrophic data loss if the computer freezes. An equivalent keystroke should be assigned, for example Fn + Eject, to preserve the functionality of the Magic SysRq key in linux on a Mactel. I believe this is a bug and not a feature request because the current implementation assumes that all keyboards have a SysRq key which is an incorrect assumption and therefore a mistake, or bug. |
