announce:sysrq keys reconfiguration
Maybe not the best list for this, but nevertheless, let me announce the
first version of the magic sysrq reconfigurator. As most of you probably
know, Linux has the "magic sysrq" key feature. For example, if computer
hangs, you can press Sysrq+U (to remount disk readonly), Sysrq+S (to sync)
and finally Sysrq+B (to reboot quite cleanly since now disks are readonly
and synced).
Unfortunately, my laptop is missing Sysrq+U. Sysrq is actually Fn+F9, but
Fn also enables the embedded numeric keypad which changes U to 4.
The solution is here: sysrq reconfigurator will let you reassign the Sysrq
key combinations to other keys. It requires 2.4.x kernel version.

Let me know if it works and what do you like it.
