[SOLVED]How configure keyboard configuration to kill Cinnamon Desktop.

Question

Hello I have installed Cinnamon desktop and i try enable ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill it, passing terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp to XkbOptions.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … on_in_Xorg
This is my 10-keyboard.conf.
Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "system-keyboard"
    MatchIsKeyboard "on"
    Option "XkbLayout" "es"
    Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
    Option "XkbVariant" "deadtilde, dvorak"
    Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSection
I try.... :
Section .....
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle, terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
or ..
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
...but no result. Any idea to enable to enable Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.
Edit:
Finally i switched the displays manager gdm by sddm...and this config works perfectly:
Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "system-keyboard"
    MatchIsKeyboard "on"
    Option "XkbLayout" "es"
    Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
    Option "XkbVariant" "deadtilde, dvorak"
    Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle, terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
Thanks.

Answer 1

Sorry, I feel like I should have done some more googling but it only occured to me while writing this post that other universities use eduroam. With a quick google search I found a solution.I will redeam myself by posting my solution.
1. ip link set wlan0 up where wlan0 is your wireless interface you are trying to connect from.
2. Create/edit /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf to look like:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
network={
ssid="eduroam"
scan_ssid="eduroam"
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=CCMP
group=CCMP
eap=PEAP
identity="abc1@university_name.ac.uk"
password="PASSWORD"
ca_cert="/usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/GlobalSign_Root_CA.crt"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
3. As root:
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
4. then dhcpcd wlan0 again where wlan0 is the interface you are trying to connect from.
