---help---
If you have a PCI-WDT500/501 watchdog board, say Y here, otherwise N.
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
- module will be called wdt_pci.
-
-config WDT_501_PCI
- bool "PCI-WDT501 features"
- depends on WDTPCI
- help
- Saying Y here and creating a character special file /dev/temperature
- with major number 10 and minor number 131 ("man mknod") will give
- you a thermometer inside your computer: reading from
- /dev/temperature yields one byte, the temperature in degrees
- Fahrenheit. This works only if you have a PCI-WDT501 watchdog board
- installed.
+ If you have a PCI-WDT501 watchdog board then you can enable the
+ temperature sensor by setting the type parameter to 501.
If you want to enable the Fan Tachometer on the PCI-WDT501, then you
can do this via the tachometer parameter. Only do this if you have a
fan tachometer actually set up.
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called wdt_pci.
