Add informations on how, for real, re-enable Ctrl+Alt+Backspace:

Browse source 
- with setxkbmap(1);
  - with a hald's x11-input.fdi file (encourage people to reboot the box
    to force hald to correctly reload its configuration since I noted
    that /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald restart etc. often ended in a
    non-detected mouse...).
