I hit scroll lock to do this, and it killed the splash screen, but when I went to log in the keyboard on the console was pretty much fubar. Every key was mapped to a different value, and I couldn't even C-A-D to reboot clean, I had to do a soft reset. Obviously this is a "... well don't do that" case, but I'm not sure it should be fatal. Hopefully this is of use to someone. Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
