I assume this is the right place to request drivers for the Fedora kernel?
I'd like to request that the in-tree IB700 watchdog driver be enabled. The config option is IB700_WDT.
My reading of the code is that it won't break anything unless users explicitly load the new module:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.28.5/drivers/watchdog/ib700wdt.c

looks like it already is ?
$ grep IB700 config-* config-generic:CONFIG_IB700_WDT=m

I don't understand the way the config files get generated fully, but in current Rawhide CVS I see:
$ grep IB700 config* config-generic:# CONFIG_IB700_WDT is not set config-x86-generic:CONFIG_IB700_WDT=m
The driver doesn't seem to be built even on x86, eg in this build from today:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?fileStart=1650&rpmID=1042373&... http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/kernel/2.6.29/0.153.rc6.git2.fc11...

I replied to your mail before I noticed another mail that showed Kyle turned it on earlier today. He added it to config-generic, which is what my grep turned up. I moved it to x86-generic, as it seems pointless turning it on on other architectures given it's for a SBC.
The driver doesn't seem to be built even on x86, eg in this build from today:
Yeah, no builds have been done today yet. It'll be in the next one that goes out.
