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.  Sug-
       gested 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
