Press CTRL+T then type sudo reboot.
A fail proof method to switching to windows with your keyboard. Technically it isn't restarting but instead "Rebooting".
Your question has been answered.
...Your welcome
We could use a little more detail on exactly what you want. Do you want to remove a keyboard from a Windows machine and plug it into a running Ubuntu machine?
It can be done with just a click of the mouse or keyboard

1. CTRL + T is terrific for bringing up a new 'Speed Dial' page. I'm using an Acer PC.
2. Technically it is "Rebooting" you're correct but if one clicks on the 'Shut Down' button on the drop down you will see Shut Down then 'Restart'.
3. Presumptuous, as my question has not been answered to satisfaction yet - but a valiant try, as a keyboard solution such as you offered is what I'm after, please don't be discouraged. Ahem

I think he meant ctrl+alt+t. That should bring up a terminal, and then you can type in
ThisCode:sudo reboot
will also make it reboot, and thisCode:shutdown -r now
will make it shutdown and power off.Code:sudo shutdown -P now
Look at
for more details on that command, andCode:man reboot
for details on the shutdown command.Code:man shutdown

audiomick; This is making more sense now, at least to me.
The url doesn't though, it brings up Open Linux Forums- Index
