Ctrl+Alt+Bksp to restart X

[Sissy]

How do I enable this? I found something on the Ubuntu forums about the "dontzap" package in Jaunty, but this appears to be unknown to Karmic...

Thanks Rog131. Short and sweet and it works, the perfect how-to. (As you can tell, I'm new to actually USING 9.10, though it's been installed a few times on my PCs for GRUB 2 testing ).

Thanks Rog!

Note to others who might use this info: your "Advanced" tab may instead be called "Xkb Options" (mine is...)
