  Hi!
  
  This trick is maybe nontrivial... and it is needed on many
  machines. Please apply,

 On x86   - You press the key combo 'ALT-SysRq-<command key>'. Note - Some
            keyboards may not have a key labeled 'SysRq'. The 'SysRq' key is
-           also known as the 'Print Screen' key.
+           also known as the 'Print Screen' key. Also some keyboards can not
+	   handle so many keys being pressed at the same time, so you might
+	   have better luck with "press Alt", "press SysRq", "release Alt",
+	   "press <command key>", release everything.
 
 On SPARC - You press 'ALT-STOP-<command key>', I believe.
