NAME
keyboard-request - event signalling console press of Alt-UpArrow
SYNOPSIS
keyboard-request
[ENV]...
DESCRIPTION
The
keyboard-request
event is generated by the Upstart
init(8)
daemon when the keyboard request key combination (typically Alt-UpArrow)
is pressed on the console.
The support for this event depends on your kernel configuration. Suggested
use for this event includes spawning a new login console when pressed, or
for secure attention key support.
This event is not handled in the default Upstart configuration.
EXAMPLE
A task to be run on the keyboard request might use:
-
start on keyboard-request
