Thanks both rocky & leszek
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace --> how excellent that you told me how to enable it [now done]. This had never ever worked for me since i left Mint 17.3 KDE4 for Maui, & i stupidly assumed it was "omitted" from Ubuntu 16.04. I dunno why i never thought of looking in this part of Settings for it. Next freeze i shall use this... but it would be kinda nice if i have no more freezes!
Re your kernel possible freeze debate, i also had wondered that this morning, but had also concluded same as rocky, given that TB was definitely still working, & thus obviously so still was Network Manager etc.
I'm using kernel 4.4.0-59-generic btw, ie, nothing "radical".
Even though i now have Ctrl+Alt+Backspace available again, i'm still interested in activating REISUB, not just SUB... should i / can i just use either the 1 or 244 value, do you think?
