Re: Ctrl-alt-del to restart window manager with xfce in wheezy?
Dne, 10. 06. 2013 04:27:35 je Rick Thomas napisal(a):
I've got xfce window manager installed on pretty-much as it comes
fresh-out-of-the-box Wheezy.
I'd like to have <ctrl>-<alt>-<del> restart the window manager.
I've configured it to do so with "dpkg-reconfigure
keyboard-configuration", but (even after a reboot) that doesn't seem
to do the job.
Anybody know what I'm missing?
Thanks!
Rick
What you're missing is a text file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d which is
needed to make the <ctrl>-<alt>-<bkspc> combo work since in recent
Xservers the 'DontZap' option has been deprecated. The file which IIRC
may be named anyway you want (mine is named 50-synaptics.conf since it
also contains some configurations for my touchpad) should contain the
following lines:
# Let's compensate for the deprecated Xserver "DontZap" option
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard"
Option "XkbOptions"
"terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,"
EndSection
# Alternatively, if/when this gets deprecated in turn, the following
command issued at DesktopEnvironment autostart should work:
# setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp
After creating the said file, you might need to restart the X server or
reboot.
Good luck!
Caveat lector: this works in LXDE, I don't know about xfce since I'm
not using it.
