init script

Talk status
This discussion is done.

While looking for an init script I have been reading through http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Install_XBMC_for_Linux#Add_a_new_init_script and I wonder if it would be better to also use start-stop-daemon instead of calling su and killall.

This is what I'm using at the moment:

start()
{
        ebegin "Starting XBMC"
        start-stop-daemon --start -u ${XBMC_USER:-xbmc} --background --pidfile /var/run/xbmc.pid --make-pidfile --exec /usr/bin/xinit -- /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone ${XMBC_OPTS} -- :0
        eend $?
}

stop()
{
        ebegin "Stopping XBMC"
        start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/xbmc.pid
        eend $?
}
