[Bug 932381] Re: IT87 watchdog timer driver not working
Well I guess no one is going to fix the it87_wdt module any time soon :(
As a work-around, my own version of the watchdog daemon (update #117 or
later) now detects if it is reported as "IT87 WDT" when queried and re-
sets the time-out on each refresh, rather then writing '\0' to the
device. It appears to work OK on the motherboards I have.
Code can be found here:
http://www.sat.dundee.ac.uk/~psc/watchdog/Linux-Watchdog.html
Usual disclaimer about (A) it is not the official version, and (B) check
and test the code yourself, as absolutely no warranty!
