[13:43] <robinsmidsrod> are there any plans to allow upstart to start specific jobs as a specific user?
[13:44] <ion> yes
[13:45] <robinsmidsrod> having to use "su" to switch user and then running the command keeps a lot of su processes running, and the pid reported by upstart is actually the su process instead of the actual app
[13:45] <ion> yep
[13:49] <ashb> robinsmidsrod: sudo instead of su might work slightly better, no?
[13:55] <warly> Hello, I have a simple question regarding writing upstart command. I would like to have a script run when entering runlevel 4, and run again when quitting runlevel 4, is there a way to do that with upstart ?
[13:57] <ashb> stats on runlevel[4]
[13:57] <ashb> or similar
[13:59] <warly> stats ?
[14:00] <warly> You may mean start. Actually starting the script on entering runlevel 4 is ok, but I cannot really manage to have it run again when leaving runlevel 4
[14:01] <ion> start on runlevel 4
[14:02] <ion> stop on runlevel [!4]
[14:02] <ion> post-start exec yourthing
[14:02] <ion> pre-stop exec yourthing
[14:03] <warly> ion: thanks I will try that!
[14:03] <ion> Actually, maybe make that pre-start and post-stop.
[16:01] <fancybit> hi
[16:01] <fancybit> my ubuntu don't have the /etc/inittab file, so where should I start my reading of the script?
[16:04] <fancybit> I browsed the web of upstart, seems no manual but only blueprints 
[16:04] <fancybit> That's the only way to study?
[16:04] <fancybit> ...
[16:05] <warly> fancybit: have you looked at http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/ ?
[16:55] <fancybit> yes
[17:40] <salman> Hi. I'm trying to find some documentation on how to implement the equivalent of kb::kbrequest in an upstart script... could someone link me to the docs?
[17:40] <salman> tried a wiki search but nothing turned up
