Ohh wow sweet! Thanks Paul! Kubuntu is already configured this way. Lol, they probably wanted a bit of insurance. I had known about this technique a while back, but the instructions on the website link you sent were easy and clear to follow. It worked fine on a running system, I just need my system to lock up now to retest the command.
