This has an own thread "Kernel Upgrade Help needed!"
Did you try setting the proxy for up2date inside the source file with
"httpProxy=proxyhost.domain.tld:3128 _and_ exporting
"http_proxy=proxyhost.domain.tld:3128", as well with "export
HTTP_PROXY=$http_proxy" (exporting proxy_user and proxy_passwd as well)?

Why does an USB printer need a different kernel? Can you be specific:
which model, which driver required, for what reason kernel exchange?

Which USB modem? Are you sure there are no FC1 compiled drivers already
available i.e. throug Dag Wieer's repository? Even if not, you in
certainly most cases you do not need to rebuild the whole kernel but
only need to have the fitting kernel source installed to build the
device driver module.

http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/ has quite a lot of
audio applications compiled for FC1. Nothing there for you?

That application need qt version 1.4? Wow, what an old peace of software
must that be. Certainly from last century (1998 or so).

And what is the problem with that?

If you know how to use the compiler it should be no problem at all.
