=== X server ===
The key combination ''Ctrl+Alt+Backspace'' to kill the X server has been removed from the default XKB maps. To restore it, you must enable the xkb option ''terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp''.  From the main menu, select ''System'' > ''Preferences'' > ''Keyboard''.  In the ''Keyboard Preferences'' dialog, select the ''Layout'' tab, then select ''Layout Options''.  Select ''Key sequence to kill the X server'' and then tick the checkbox for ''Control + Alt + Backspace''.
Alternatively, run the following command to enable the key combination temporarily:
<pre>setxkbmap -option "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"</pre>
The package {{package|fedora-setup-keyboard}} automatically merges this XKB option at X server startup, making the ''Ctrl+Alt+Backspace'' key combination functional in gdm, or if the server is started without the GNOME desktop environment. It is deactivated once GNOME applies the user-configured keyboard layout unless the user has enabled it in the preferences menu as detailed above.
=== Third-party Video Drivers ===
Refer to the Xorg third-party drivers page for detailed guidelines on using third-party video drivers.
