I have Fedora6 with VIA chipset onboard video and Gnome. Many of the installed applications will freeze the display screen, and mouse. When this happens is there a Gnome keyboard shortcut that will give me access to a shell prompt, so that I can kill the offending process, or restart X windows. Right now, my only option is to turn the power off.
