Most keyboards have a SysRq key, which is usually used by pressing <Ctrl> Print Screen. It's not normally used in applications, but can be used for certain issues.
James,
Don't you mean Alt+PrintScreen?
Magic SysRq requires holding ALT and the key labelled "Prt Scr / Sys Rq" (where the slash is a horizontal bar and Prt Scr is above and Sys Rq is below) followed by the action key: S for sync, U for unmount, B for reboot, etc. As for activating the primary "print screen" and "system request" functions, I do know that under KDE on openSUSE 11.1, simply pressing that key (without modifiers) activates KSnapshot, suggesting that the default is the upper label (Prt Scr). Adding shift to that key does nothing by default.
