[08:27] <pikaren> rescuetime.conf
[08:27] <pikaren> ~/.config/upstart $ start rescuetime
[08:27] <pikaren> start: Unknown job: rescuetime
[08:28] <pikaren> system: linux mint  upstart version: 1.10
[08:29] <pikaren> and i've changed my upstart.conf to http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~upstart-devel/upstart/trunk/view/1301/dbus/Upstart.conf
[08:29] <pikaren> please help?
[14:23] <jrib> hello!  If I would like to have a job that is managed by an unprivileged user, what is the best way to do this?  Should I create a user job in ~/.config/upstart?  I need the job to run automatically at boot
[14:36] <jrib> i guess http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#non-graphical-sessions-ubuntu-specific is the way? 
[14:36] <jrib> it seems somewhat hacky/like it's going to change.  I'm thinking of just using setuid/setgid and setting up sudoers so the user can control the one job.  Thoughts?
[14:37] <jrib> plus it would make it clunky to control the job
[19:41] <xnox> pikaren, well you are now gone....
[19:41] <xnox> jrib: if it's a system job, make it a system job in /etc/init/ and with correct start on it will start on boot.
[19:43] <xnox> jrib: if you want to allow some users to control it (e.g. start/stop/restart/reload etc.) i believe you can apply policykit rules to allow those actions. Or e.g. create simple setuid scripts around initctl to do that + e.g. change permissions on the job file to allow a group of users to write/modify it.
[19:43] <xnox> jrib: typically setuid/setguid/export HOME= are sufficent to make a "system" job to run unprivileged.
[22:01] <bwlang> hi... i'm trying to get an upstart script to respond to a dvd insertion...
[22:01] <bwlang> i can see the udev event using udevadm monitor --property --udev
[22:02] <bwlang> but i don't think my script /etc/init/dvd-inserted.conf is being run.
[22:02] <bwlang> where can i find the logs about this or increase the logs.
[22:02] <bwlang> ?
[22:04] <bwlang> i start with start on block-device-added; task; script ; echo 'here' > /tmp/dvd_inserted; end script (s/;/\n/)
