 Which kernel do You use? selfmade? or precompiled one?
 Here is Device section of XF86Config i was using when i had BVision:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "BVision"
        Driver          "glint"
        BusID           "PCI:0:1:0"
        VideoRam        8192
        Option          "UseFBDev"
        Option          "ShadowFB" "Off"
        Option          "NoInt10"
EndSection

 NoInt10 option might be what You are after.. (after rebooting You might
check /var/log/XFree86*log )

and btw IIRC Ctrl Alt Del never had any effect on Amiga... To kill X You
can use Ctrl Alt Backspace.
