Hi Michael - if it happens again, please try to ping one of the upstart devs. Otherwise, the following would be very useful:
$ initctl list $ ps -efwww $ cat ~/.xsession-errors $ initctl list-sessions $ sudo cat /proc/$pid/stack # let it run for a few seconds then kill it and attach the log. $ strace -p $pid -fFv -s 1024 -o /tmp/session-init-strace.log Then try the "kill -ABRT $pid".
