My colleague [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I have slapped together a quick and dirty hardware watchdog driver for boards with the Winbond W83697UF/UG SuperIO chip. Its a kld that ties into the existing watchdog framework. Its version 1.0 but seems to work just fine. If you have a board with such a chip and are willing to try it out, let me know if it works, or if you think it should work but does not. Comments / suggestions for improvement welcome at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There is also a port version

The board we developed it on is a Commwell Mini-ITX MB LV-667E8 and we used the existing ichwd driver as a template/framework.
