Check the dev and user archives, I think this has been discussed a
few times since the new input layer backport went in.

For xmon it's <cmd><Power>. I'm not sure the Linux SysReq facility
is supported for PPC, I've never seen it enabled in Ben's .config
files and there is no sign of it in the archives.

However, invoking xmon once X (at least Xpmac 10) is running
will result in a microscopic xmon text session replicated 4 times
across the screen (even if you switch back to a text VT first).
