Does Alt + SysRq work on Librem laptops?

I would assume that’s the case and that the Fn key would continue to work in the event of a kernel hang. I’ve never had a keyboard where Print Screen was on a secondary layer so I can’t say for sure, but you could enable it, try it out, and report back to let others with Librem laptops know.

I can confirm that Fn PrtSc a does show the little “help” dialog in the logs, which means it works, thanks!

sysrq: SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reboot(b) crash(c) terminate-all-tasks(e) memory-full-oom-kill(f) kill-all-tasks(i) thaw-filesystems(j) sak(k) show-backtrace-all-active-cpus(l) show-memory-usage(m) nice-all-RT-tasks(n) poweroff(o) show-registers(p) show-all-timers(q) unraw(r) sync(s) show-task-states(t) unmount(u) force-fb(V) show-blocked-tasks(w) dump-ftrace-buffer(z)  

It’s a little awkward because ScrLk and PrtSc are reversed from their usual order (PrtSc and ScrLk). But I guess I’ll just have to get used to it…
