Kernel compiling and hacking don't concern me. I am quite happy to
tinker with compiling the kernel a few times.

I'll let you know how I go. Another thing I like about the divico
fusion one is the fact it is capable to be used in a slim pci slot. It
even comes with a slim pci bracket. So that sold me. I will put the
machine into a aopen H340B case.

Anyone got the fusion plus and fusion lite cards to work together in
same machine? Just out of interest.
