This is the last call for comments for the review of debconf templates for watchdog. The reviewed templates will be sent on Thursday, June 21, 2007 to the package maintainer as a bug report and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag. --
Template: watchdog/run Type: boolean Default: true _Description: Start watchdog at boot time? Please specify whether watchdog should be started as part of the boot process. This can be changed later by editing /etc/default/watchdog. Template: watchdog/restart Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Restart watchdog on upgrades? If the kernel is configured with the CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT option (which is not the default setting), restarting watchdog will cause a spurious reboot (the kernel will assume that the watchdog daemon crashed). Template: watchdog/module Type: string Default: none _Description: Watchdog module to preload: Please choose which watchdog module should be preloaded before starting watchdog. The 'softdog' module should be suited for all installations. Enter 'none' if you don't want the script to load a module.

Description: software watchdog
The watchdog program writes to /dev/watchdog every ten seconds. If
the device is opened but not written to within a minute, the machine
will reboot. This feature is available when the kernel is built with
'software watchdog' support (standard in Debian kernels).
.
The ability to reboot will depend on the state of the machine
and interrupts.
