nmi_watchdog=2 will work on the majority of i686+ (performance counters with NMI delivery mode) boxes and you can check whether it's enabled by doing cat /proc/interrupts and watching if the NMI line ticks at a decent rate. nmi_watchdog=1 tends to be harder for hardware manufacturers to get right (for some reason or other). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
