The ctrl+alt+backspace key combination that used to do a hard restart of the X server has been disabled in many distros. This functionality can be achieved with the combination:
AltGr+Sysrq+k
Where Sysrq is the same Print screen or Prtsc key.
Also, the old ctrl+alt+backspace behaivor can be restored by following the instructions in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg#Ctrl.2BAlt.2BBackspace_does_not_work.
