On PC keyboard, you can use the Magic SysRq sequences:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key
ALT+SysRq and press R-E-I-S-U-B in that sequence. This will switch the
keyboard from Raw to translated mode, send SIGTERM signal to all processes
(except init), send SIGKILL signal, sync all mounted filesystems, unmount them
and finally reboot.
