[SOLVED}How to kill Xorg with Ctrl Alt Backspace in 5.x?
« on: November 28, 2013, 04:26:19 AM »
Hi,
  Put DontZap in ServerFlags used to work with Xorg 7.4 in 2.x. Now when I am working with 5.x, the same configuration does not work. I see (**) Option "DontZap" "false" in Xorg.0.log, but actually there is nothing happening.

Xorg-7.6 was patched for <ctrl-alt-backspace>, but I was unable to make the patch work for Xorg-7.7.

If you search these forums there was an explanation of a line to add to .xsession to enable this in Xorg-7.7

Thanks.

I read the patch. It is pretty much what I did manually for the configuration files. And I failed to make it work....

I searched the forum with 'xsession zap 7.7' keywords, even using Google, but I did not find the explanation. Any more clues?
