Day 981: Re-enable CTRL + Alt + Backspace in Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04

CTRL + ALT + Backspace, by default in Jaunty is supposed to restart X. In Windows systems, it's something akin to CTRL + ALT + DEL. The difference is that you are brought back to the login screen where you get to choose your username, enter your password and choose the type of session that you like.

For some reason, Ubuntu devs thought that they should disable it by default in Jaunty. I found a guide to re-enable it:
