I've been googling, and looking at the CentOS wiki - which, btw, when I do a full search on "control-alt-backspace", gives me three pages... in Japanese, I think.
How do I re-enable userspace restart X?
You used to be able to do it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but not sure if it still works.
Section "ServerFlags" Option "DontZap" "false" EndSection
I see stackexchange adds
ection "InputClass" Identifier "Keyboard Defaults" MatchIsKeyboard "yes" Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" EndSection
Also, at least with the more minimalist window managers (I usually use either Openbox or dwm) one can also use ctl+alt+F<whatever>, get to a console and do sudo pkill X.
And... I just found this on worldofgnome.org:
Using Xinitrc
Xinitrc is read by xinit and is been executed when we (desktops) start X.
Create a new file (if not exists):
gedit ~/.xinitrc
Add
setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp
$ setxkbmap ... will set the changes on the fly.
Restart X to apply changes. Logout/Login.
Thanks folks, I'll give it a try today.
