Examine the following output:

pc1542:~$ uptime
10:49am up 15 days, 18:26, 1 user, load average: 0.12, 0.03, 0.01
pc1542:~$ cat /proc/interrupts
0: 136239230 timer
1: 8 keyboard
2: 0 + cascade
10: 4189498 WD8013
13: 1 math error
14: 282361 + ide0
pc1542:~$

Note the number at interrupt 0; after a rather short uptime there's
not enough space for the digits. Shouldn't we expand the coumns
before 2.0 is out?

I'm just wondering (no source) what the '+' sign means; sharable
interrupts?

BTW:
pc1542:~$ uname -a
Linux pc1542 1.3.66 #2 Tue Feb 20 08:12:24 MET 1996 i386
