Hi Wesley

I could not make sense of your email

I see I have upstart installed
I could not run it :
sudo upstart --help
sudo: upstart: command not found

I did this:
cat /etc/init.d/network-manager

and found this:
#!/bin/sh -e
# upstart-job
#
# Symlink target for initscripts that have been converted to Upstart.

set -e

I could not figure out how to auto-run this


Kind regards

Nico Michael
