Hi there,

At the moment I haven't enabled a hard lockup detector (I guess you're
talking about NMI watchdog, right?) but I am just trying to hard lockup
Linux using a kernel module. I was expecting the posted module to do that
but apparently it doesn't (Linux still works great after loading it).

Thanks,

John K.
