I'm still running a bit of a down level system but you shouldn't have
any problems doing what you want to do.

3.3.x (rolled my own and patched the Xserver to recognize the memory
      & chip set et. al. , patches now in main stream code)

2.2.x (You only have to watch out for the available memory, and make
      sure that you tell the kernel how much you really have available)

Not quite your desired set up but it proves that using all of the above
devices simultaneously is feasable.

+ IBM Docking Station
  - an additional 45G HD in the DS
  - Epson GT-5500 SCSI Scanner.
  - Used to have a Wacom ArtPad attached to the serial port (before I
    attached the Palm docking station), worked without a hitch.

Hope this helps.
