Hello!

I have some IBM HS21-8853 blades, and they work all fine as long as I don't
plug in IBM Qlogic QMC4052 iSCSI HBA..

After adding QMC4052 HBA, IRQ routing (?) gets messed up and the USB-based 
console
in IBM bladecenter/chassis (keyboard and mouse) don't work very well anymore..
every keypress gets doubled, and mouse is really wild :) so can't really use
the console for anything.. Other devices seem to work fine, ie. it _seems_ to 
only 
affect the USB console.

Screenshot of what kernel says during system startup:

irq 74: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
..
Disabling IRQ #74

This problem gets fixed with the suggested "irqpoll" option to the kernel
cmdline, ie. console works normally after giving "irqpoll" option to the
kernel. Although the "nobody cared" error will still happen during bootup.. 

I'm running RHEL 5.2 (2.6.18-92) atm.

Any ideas how to fix this? I'm running latest IBM BIOS (v1.13) on the
Blades.. Is there some option in BIOS that could affect this? 

Same QMC4052 HBAs work all fine in older IBM HS20-8843 blades..
