The best way to avoid this is to omit the "-rt" flag (the watchdog is there to prevent an RT process from locking out everyone else if it goes in an infinite loop.) I'd like to know how to prevent its getting worried when tk goes away on legitimate business (like open panels) but don't know how to do it and still be sure it's impossible to crash the machine...
Wouldn't it be possible to do the watchdog pinging from a separate low priority thread instead of the GUI ?
