I created a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file using

# X -configure

and added/changed the following section:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Keyboard0"
    Driver         "keyboard"
    Option         "XkbModel" "pc105"
    Option         "XkbLayout" "de"
    Option         "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
    Option         "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection

The last Option line isn't necessary, but it makes it possible to
terminate the X server by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, which has been
deactivated in recent default configurations.

If you add the above mentioned Section "InputDevice", make sure that
the Section "ServerLayout" contains a CoreKeyboard entry matching the
given identifier. In my case, Section "ServerLayout" looks like:

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "XFree86 Configured"
    Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
    InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
    InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
    Option         "Clone" "off"
EndSection
