[Bug 59038] sax2: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill X should be disabled by default
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=59038#c16
--- Comment #16 from Boyd Timothy
I find this discussion pointless. If you do a ctrl-alt-del in text mode the system reboots. There is nothing to stop it to do this. If you did the same on some earlier Windows version (and in the old dos days) the same thing happened.
Yes, one could do something to pop up a window and let the user confirm. This would involve some work - but it would be feasable.
Great suggestion! A pop up window would be excellent. I assume if X was really locked up it wouldn't be possible to pop open a window, in which case, perhaps multiple presses of Ctrl-Alt-Backspace would then cause a crashed X to really die? But, for normal operation, a pop up could at least prevent most of the accidental problems. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
