So, is fedora going to provide a good interrupt handler to deal with these interrupts and service them correctly the way Dell intended them to be serviced?
I wonder how windows handles these.

dell-wmi is a kernel module.
If this is causing you trouble, file a BZ against the kernel.

Thanx Ed. It is not causing any malfunction. I wanted to know what the unknown event is and why it is labeled unknown. Seems to me that on such old hardware, there should not be any unknown interrupts/events.
