You have to install a 2.6.29.3 or a later kernel.You can find debian packages of kernels from here..
First issue, the kernel version for those packages

Update your grub via :
$sudo update-grub
Reboot your box with 2.6.29-03 kernel.To be sure, open a terminal and paste this command (change eth0 to your network interface : eth1,eth0, wlan0 etc)
$ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1d:92:4b:92:c7
inet addr:94.54.36.125 Bcast:94.54.63.255 Mask:255.255.192.0

If the output is similar to this (no extra lines like 213123/64), then you have disabled ipv6
Well for some reason it could not find the path to ifconfig, however that doesn't explain how you have a collection of displays for ifconfig on its own /sbin/ifconfig eth0
The path to ifconfig
--in terminal, check

Don't be updating the kernel or grub. Please state the nature of the problem please. Why are you trying to disable IPV6. Is this a firefox only problem or do you have other networking issues.

You're not even getting an ip adddress from the router and I have no idea why. You might want to post the output of the following in the hope that someone eventually sees what's wrong here.
You said you were dual booting. If it's with windows:
Open Command Prompt
Type ipconfig /all
Back in Mint:
Open Terminal
Type cat /etc/network/interfaces
Type cat /etc/resolv.conf

Change your topic to Linux Mint 7 Gloria XFCE Networking Problem - Atheros
You'll get many more people who have this somewhat problematic card to respond.
Re: Asus Eee 1008 Ha wireless lan driver
to get the wired eth0 you need the new atheros driver atl1e, which has to be compiled. Then once you have that you can just install linux-backports-modules-jaunty from the Unsupported Updates repository. There are a few errors compiling the atheros driver, but these can be ignored safely.
using some computer that has network and a usb stick:
1. go to http://partner.atheros.com/Drivers.aspx
2. download [459]AR813X-linux-v1.0.0.9.tar.gz
3. put that file on the USB stick and then plug that insto your Eee
Then on the Eee:
1. copy the driver tarball file to /tmp
2. Open Terminal
cd /tmp
tar -xvzf \[459\]AR813X-linux-v1.0.0.9.tar.gz
[ignore gzip errors]
make
sudo make install
[ignore error about permissions]
3. sudo modprobe atl1e
4. You should now have a eth0 (ifconfig -a) - wired ethernet. Hook up a cable and get an IP addr.
get wlan0 up:
5. go to Administration > Software Sources > Updates and check off "Unsupported Updates (jaunty-backports)", .
6. sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty
7. reboot
Once you reboot, you should have wireless showing up in the top status bar.
