- try command-control-powerkey to restart instead of pushing the powerbutton.
- also, get MacsBug from sumex-aim.stanford.edu and aquaint yourself with the
- "es" and "ea" commands, even if you do nothing at all with MacsBug it helps
- to have it so in these kinds of situations you can restart the normal way and
- not have to use the command-control-powerkey option.
