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.
