Note: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace will kill the X session under the default
setup. After which, KDM should respawn. However, this is rarely what
you want to do, since it can muck up your session management. What you
probably want to do is map a hot key sequence in X, that'll perform
a logout. I'm remembering that Sawfish has an easy way to setup such
key sequences...
You almost certainly don't want to mess with inittab for such
functionality...
