Uhh, no. Its not clear that my 'blind typing' actually did anything. I
tried typing 'date >foo; vbetool post >foobar' while blind, and I can
find neither file after shutting down/restarting (CTL-ALT-DEL appears
to shutdown/reboot OK).

Anyway, after typing 'vbetool post', CTL-ALT-F7 had no effect.

I tried typing this on both X41 keyboard and USB keyboard.
