If that person cannot reproduce the problem but another skilled kernel
developer can then it would make sense for he-who-can-reproduce-it to do
some work.

Still, I doubt if that's the case here.


Is the below correct?

Old behaviour:

a) press alt
b) press sysrq
c) release alt
d) press T
e) release T
f) release sysrq

New behaviour:

a) press alt
b) press sysrq
c) release sysrq
d) press T
e) release T
f) release alt

If so, then the old behaviour was weird and the new behaviour is sensible.
What, actually, is the problem?
