    It appears that this problem can be fixed by adding the following to
    "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf"

            Section "InputClass"
                  Identifier        "system-setup-keyboard"
                  MatchIsKeyboard     "on"
                  Option        "XkbOptions"    "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
            EndSection


    At least it works for me.

    Thanks for the help,

    Bob
