On my machine lspci -v shows that my ethernet controller is using tg3. Can I use e1000e instead of tg3. Unloading tg3 module and the load e1000e module is not helping because the eth0 interface remains down after the e1000e is loaded. Please suggest if I am missing something.
Thanks.

No tg3 and e1000e are drivers for different models of ethernet card. If you want to use e1000e for some reason you'll need to buy a suitable intel Ethernet card.

We have recently got adafruit bluefruit le which looks like
Now we are interfacing it with Lilypad ATMEGA 328 as the same shown below link::
LilyPad interfacing with bluefruit
For configuration of bluefruit we are using this link.
Here it is mentioned
connect the CTS pin on the Bluefruit to ground if you are not using it!
But we are not able to find CTS pin on the Bluefruit. Please suggest if you have any idea.
On Flora board CTS pin connected to the ground on hardware level. CTS not used on this board by default.

I am at the stage of learning Linux.
I have just installed Fedora20, but I cannot connect to internet with
my Wireless USB adapter....
Can anyone help me to use internet in Linux fedora 20?
This question is probably going to get migrated to somewhere like Super User, but just to give you a starting point, does the Wireless adapter register as an interface? Run ifconfig -a on the terminal and look out for a wlan0.
Then run ifconfig wlan0 up, and you can then do iw dev wlan0 scan to list access points that the card can see. You can then do some Googling about connecting a wireless card using wpa-supplicant.
If you can't see a wlan0 interface in ifconfig it could be that you don't have the drivers for your Wifi card. You'll need to Google which drivers are required and you might be able to get a kernel module or driver binary from somewhere on the internet.

I am looking for a mini-pc compatible with Ubuntu. It is to be used as a "infoscreen" (displaying an activity list). By compatible i mean that drivers must be available, at least for graphics and wifi.
It must have the following capabilities:
Run MonoDevelop for C# compatibility*
Run LAMP (Apache, MySQL and PHP)*
Have wifi - preferably built-in.
Preferably resolution up to 1920x1080
Low price :-)
* I know this is possible with Ubuntu, but someone might suggest an Android mini-pc or some other kind, that i don't know of. As long as the above is possible, i don't care which brand or type it is.
Can anyone recommend a specific mini-pc or maybe a brand?
I've tried the Zotac Zbox Nano VD01 Plus, but that was no succes. Only old version of Ubuntu were supported and i never got the wifi driver fully working.
Thank you in advance!
I'd recommend a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian. it doesn't have wifi, but there are adapters.

Can someone tell me about RFID reader that is compatible with Beagle Board??
Anything that is Linux compatible over USB should work easily. The OpenBeacon looks interesting to me.
What type of RFID LF/HF/UHF? MiFare? The beagle board has a UART and supplies power, that should be enough for most embedded readers out there. You could also use a bluetooth shield and have even more flexible options.
Well if you are looking for a PICC's UID reading with a low-cost solution you should look here. It is a lightweight library written in C for BeagleBone Black.
You could use this library with RC522 Module. Communication protocol is SPI(SPI0) between BBB and RC522 Module.

Every time I start my network interface, I get a different MAC address! If I try to force the MAC address value using
ifconfig usb0 hw ether AA:BB:DD..:FF
it will be again different after issuing
ifconfig usb0 up
What make this MAC address change? How can I stop this to happen and stick to HW burned MAC address?
I am using a panda board (omap4/armv7) on a angtrom distribution. The inteface is a smsc95xx USB 2.0 Ethernet.
Thanks,
Fabrice.
There is an issue with the smsc95xx driver.
[PATCH] smsc95xx: generate random MAC address once, not every ifup
There is also something in the work to get a 'repeatable' MAC generation going, but it didn't get much uptake:
Beagleboard xM smsc95xx MAC address from die id
Edit just searching for smsc95xx mac address gives a ton of competing patches, with some more explanations (the smc hub+NIC frequently doesn't have an EEPROM, so also no MAC)
MAC addresses are typically coded in the chipset, but mutable.
It might be that your distro is randomising it for security reasons.
