Hi all. I’m trying out Cachy for the first time and was testing an old game on Steam (Anomaly Warzone Earth). The game went full screen but was stuck in a loading loop where I couldn’t Alt+tab or Alt+F4 my way out of. The OS was still responsive and I could open up a terminal but as soon as I did, the game’s loading screen would block my view. Is there a way to force minimize or kill a program when it’s stuck in full screen? I heard xkill could work but I don’t see how to use it when I can’t even see the terminal.

    You’ll probably have to enable it in settings first, but the usual trick across distributions is Ctrl + Alt + Bksp to drop down to console.
