In early versions of ubuntu,the key combination Ctrl+Alt+Backspace used to restart X by default,but this is disabled in the version of ubuntu 9.04 but you can hit right Alt+PrintScreen+K instead. If you’re used to use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and you want to enable it,this tutorial may help you.

First,you need to install a program just by running following command in a terminal window:

sudo apt-get install dontzap

then run following and re-login your ubuntu,the key combination will be enabled:

sudo dontzap --disable

and if you want to disable it again,just run the following code and then re-login:

sudo dontzap --enable

Done.
