Though it rarely happens. Their are times when you need to reset an Ubuntu system. Usually when you are setting up a new graphics card (or 2), or setting up a new xorg file. Nonetheless, if the screen freezes and CTRL+ALT+F1 or CTRL+ALT+Backspace fails to work remember these ALT+SysRq (or ALT+PrntScrn) combinations:
ALT+PrntScr+r, ALT+PrntScr+s, ALT+PrntScr+e, ALT+PrntScr+i, ALT+PrntScr+n, ALT+PrntScr+u, ALT+PrntScr+b
To remember the keys, remember this nonsensical phrase: "Raising Skinny Elephants Is Never Utterly Boring".
Alternatively, you can hold down CTRL+ALT+SysRq while very slowly typing; R E I S U B. A way to remember this is by inverting the word: "BUSIER" or remebering this nonsensical phrase: "Restart Even If System Utterly Broken".
Linux tricks helpful for me because it provide details how to Linux operating system is access like windows, it provide the shortcuts of the system..
