Last days I run into a problem that I needed to change the mac address of a network card directly under linux. In the last years VxWorks was used for this purpose – oh and yes I know that you should not change a mac address 🙂 But I am working in a company which produces devices with network ports and they need an initial mac address. The first thing you would try is to use ifconfig to change the mac address. ...

I think all of us run into this problem… the free space on a storage medium is getting smaller and smaller and you are not really sure why this is the case. For such cases I use a graphical tool to see the biggest space waster – as I am QT guy I am using filelight.

The last two days I found again some time to hack on the em8300/dxr3 driver. I see the end comming of all my work, but I need to change the way I work. I have renamed the old project on github to v4l2-em8300-old and created a new one. Yes you have heard it correctly – a new one. I think that I have enough knowledge to start from scratch. The new repository can be found here: https://github.com/austriancoder/v4l2-em8300
