i810 TCO ?!

i810 TCO ?!

[Mario Mikocevic]

Hi,

I would like to use i810 watchdog module (i810-tco).

Upon modprobing I get ->

kernel: i810 TCO timer: failed to reset NO_REBOOT flag, reboot disabled by hardware

what should I do now ?

 - add some options to insmod ?
 - change some option in BIOS (I can't pinpoint any)
 - change some jumper onboard ?
 - apply some patch ?


driver is 0.03 posted on this list in Oct last year.
Kernel is latest 2.4.x (currently 18-pre4).

Your motherboard is crap (sorry), it is has some magic ICH pin
wired to ground and so TCO timer is disabled.

No.

You can only patch your motherboard ;)
