That's sort of a nuisance, since the Pi is the only thing on the

_That_ is most interesting. Suggests a local problem, and the only
thing special about my setup is use of an old Kingston USB flash
drive for swap space. Perhaps it's time to try another device, maybe
even a mechanical hard drive for a while.

Control-alt-backspace must be the combination I was thinking of. I
thought maybe Raspbian has substituted something else.

Thanks to everyone for a most informative set of replies!
