What does the CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE, BACKSPACE sequence actually do "under the hood"? If my keyboard were responsive, I'd have tried that.
==== man 5 xorg.conf ==== Option "DontZap" "boolean" This disallows the use of the Terminate_Server XKB action (usu- ally on Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, depending on XKB options). This action is normally used to terminate the Xorg server. When this option is enabled, the action has no effect. Default: off. ==== man 1 xorg ==== Ctrl+Alt+Backspace Immediately kills the server -- no questions asked. It can be disabled by setting the DontZap/ZapWarning xorg.conf(5) file option to a TRUE value.
It should be noted that zapping is triggered by the Termi- nate_Server action in the keyboard map. This action is not part of the default keymaps but can be enabled with the XKB option "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp". ====
