Only option is to press reboot. Ubuntu 20.04 fully updated. Last entry in syslog has to do with canonical-livepatch. | |

| Jun 1, 2012 at 22:59 | comment | added | ixtmixilix | that's a tough question because you're not giving us much to go on... if it were me i would CTRL+ALT+F[1..6], login, and kill some processes. but i almost always know what's making my machine unresponsive, whereas you don't. and additionally, sometimes i write programs that i know are going to make it unresponsive, because i want the program's output. | |
