I have an raspberry py 2 running debian stretch and I have done all procedures to load watchdog, but I can't get module to work....it just doesn't show anything, even error! I can see watchdog 'device', but I can't see any watchdog module loaded. I have the correct lines added to my /boot/config.txt, but still not working.

4.14.41-v7+which is am unsupported testing version. What are "all procedures to load watchdog"? I don't know why you thinkmodprobe bcm2709_wdogwill show anything. I don't know aboutDebianbutwatchdogworks perfectly onRaspbian. – Milliways May 27 '18 at 04:16cat /etc/os-release– Fabian May 27 '18 at 13:33
