I _did_ go and read the Handbook section that Manolis Kiagias
kindly posted a link to, and I have now tried _both_ of the two
ways described there to re-enable CNTL-ALT-BACKSPACE functionality
for the X server, and sadly I must report that for me, at least
_neither_ of those methods worked
Put the following to your xorg.conf:
<snip>
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "DontZap" "off"
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "off"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
</snip>
This works for me very reliable (xorg-7.4_2).
That InputDevice entry is interesting. It has to be added to a Keyboard
section, not standalone as shown (unless I missed something).
(If it was standalone, it would nicely eliminate the need for the
setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp entry in my .xinitrc.)
For those who want to do that with hal, for all keyboards, here's a
patch for /usr/local/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi:
