I saw this error from dell-wmi also. The system is a Lattitude e6400 and the "unknown WMI event" happened repeatedly (a dozen times) overnight.

Doing a Fn+F8 (which changed the video from two screens to one screen to a duplicate screen back to two screens again) I got these errors:

Apr 1 09:30:23 winry kernel: [260556.557580] Skipping EDID probe due to cached edid
Apr 1 09:30:23 winry kernel: [260557.230789] Skipping EDID probe due to cached edid
Apr 1 09:30:24 winry kernel: [260558.266557] dell-wmi: Received unknown WMI event (0x11)

Sometimes the "Skipping EDID" error was double, mostly just singles entries before each unknown WMI event.

The system is studiously kept up to date and is Ubuntu 10.10:
