<para>Finding the right watchdog kernel module for a given system is not
trivial. Automatic probing fails very often. As a result, lots of modules
are already loaded before the right one gets a chance.</para>

lists the most commonly used watchdog drivers. If your hardware is not listed there,
the directories
<filename>/lib/modules/<replaceable>KERNEL_VERSION</replaceable>/kernel/drivers/watchdog</filename>
or
<filename>/lib/modules/<replaceable>KERNEL_VERSION</replaceable>/kernel/drivers/ipmi</filename>
give you a list of choices, too. Alternatively, ask your hardware or
system vendor for details on system specific watchdog configuration.
