***** Good tip! (However, once, some time ago, Linux froze up and the REISUB did not work, either. Had to push the dreaded KILL button. Result, Linux booted up normally.) *****

very cool. im wondering if it will work when a process is completely monopolizing the CPU.

I wanted to know what REISUB meant. Luckily, the wikipedia article doesn't blatantly ignore the important details.

its cool but he failed to mention that it has to be compiled in the kernel level , and it doesn't work on GUI! only on text mode. these are 2 hefty elephants...

Raising elephants is so utterly boring.

Always good to disseminate info and there will always be those who are already in the know.

Installing is Easy!
