Yes, thanks for the reminder. This is the update:

<sect3 id="c-a-b" status="2007-08-30">
<title>Ctrl-Alt-Backspace on X Disabled by Default</title>

<para>
Pressing Ctrl-Alt-Backspace on GNOME, KDE, or any other graphical desktop
does not terminate the X server any longer, but just beeps. If you
press Ctrl-Alt-Backspace within 2 seconds again, it terminates
the X server.</para>

<para>In the past it could happen that you terminated on X session
accidentially by pressing this key combination. If you want to continue
using this feature nevertheless, remove to the following line from the
<literal>ServerFlags</literal> section of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
file:</para>

<screen
Option "DontZap" "yes"</screen>

<para>For more information, see the xorg.conf manpage.
</sect3>
