i'm on XBian v1.0RC3

i need watchdog because my raspberry pi randomly freezes

Did you update from RC2? This is a known issue with older images.

By reinstalling you mean "apt-get install --reinstall"? In that case, it doesn't work: you'd need to remove and then install it again (I had the same issue a few months ago):

Terminal

sudo apt-get remove --purge watchdog
sudo apt-get install watchdog

yes i installed rc2 first and then upgraded
and your suggestion fixed my problem thanks Smile
