  ^^ IRQ number

         ^^^^^ count of interrupts since boot

                   ^^^^^ what uses interrupt

"math error" means that the FPU generates a hardware interrupt if you
try something incorrect like dividing by zero.

I don't know what the plus sign indicates. Perhaps elevated
priority. Anybody?
