Matt/Tim/Cliff,

Would you mind posting this blurb to the BAWUG website?

This is the latest Watchdog driver for the Soekris 45xx series boxes, it
will automatically reboot the Soekris device if it were to hang (due to
power fluctuations, etc.) 

You can find the latest Linux driver here:

>> Our new NexTECH distro had some additional features (we added 
>> watchdog
>> drivers that would automatically reboot the Soekris device if it were

>> to ever hang or stop responding). This is so we could put the device 
>> in an enclosure and mount it on a tower, and not ever have to 
>> manually reboot a "hung" Soekris. The Elan SC520 has a watchdog built

>> into it, it just wasn't being used. We also created a firmware patch 
>> (that we implemented in both our Debian, and OpenBSD releases for the

>> Soekris) that would fix the problem with the Soekris locking up 
>> during power fluctuations. (Brownouts)
