You may need to elaborate. What do you want to do exactly?

Hi and welcome to LQ.

This thread might help you.

Are we talking about shutting down the system?

what do you really want? The three finger trick Ctrl-Alt-Del works very differently in various environments. In oldschool DOS, it made the system restart at once; in Windows, it brings up the task manager or a dialog offering various special functions, the task manager being one of them. In Linux, or more to the point, in popular Linux Desktops, Ctrl-Alt-Del has no special meaning.

So again: What are you really looking for?

In Linux it's a bit different. See if that helps:
