Cntl-alt-backspace on many systems, but certainly not all.  epends on 
what's been programmed  into the keyboard macros ... seee the xkb 
facilities in X11 (man xkbcomp, so if cntl-alt-backspace doesn't work 
now for you, maybe you could add it in).

Many systems have a macro for cntl-alt-del, but that causes a reboot, 
and I think that's too extreme for your requirements.  Your best bet is 
investigating xkbcomp.
