I have a Win7 running on my host machine and I want to do some web development using Linux platforms and test some apps on iOS.
What are the main pros and cons of those to programs. I guess performance wise they should be about the same but maybe one has some functions that other lacks. In short what are the main differences between VMware workstation vs Oracle vm virtualbox?

Apart from the obvious difference that one costs money and the other does not, the biggest differentiator that I have found is the depth of support for 3D graphics acceleration and USB device compatibility. VMware wins on both counts.
For typical Web development tasks, both will likely work equally well.

I have a PCIe card for communications that often gets an error while connecting and, in order to recovering it, is needed to turn off the PC and then turn on again (a restart is not valid).
Is there any way to reset a PCIe card?
It will be interesting a hardware reset (quit and return supply), but even if there is any function for software reset, I would be interested in.
Thank you.
Even if you'd consider software resets, I think it should be pretty obvious that you cannot do this in an application. Hardware is managed by the OS. What would happen if ordinary applications could power down the video card?!
So, the answer (practically speaking) is no. Your purely theoretical chance (Linux is Open Source) is not an option if you're thinking about .Net and thus Windows.

I have setup a VMWare ubuntu virutal machine for development purposes. I ssh/vim in my vm and develop React/babel/webpack projects.
My webpack doesn't reload every time I save a file. It is not consistent. When I use my host operating system, it works perfectly.
Any clues?
Actually, there seems to be issue with timestamps and virtual machines.
I have good result by adding these params to the the webpack der server:
{
watchOptions: {
aggregateTimeout: 300,
poll: true
}
}

I was trying to update VMware workstation v9 to v9.0.3. After downloading the update, the program attempted to uninstall current version but failed as it couldn't find uninstall.exe. I checked Programs and Features but don't see VMware Workstation listed. Looks like I need to manually uninstall it. Is there a process/ command?
Perhaps you can try this rather comprehensive knowledge base article from VMWare:

I would like to develop some commercial tool in the area of processing data extracted out of a packet sniffer. I am aware that libpcap is available for that but I am quite sure that there are many restrictions due to licensing issues.
Suppose I don't link my application directly to libpcap libraries, but instead I use the output of tcpdump forwarded to a socket or to a pipe as a feed for my tool..do you think that I will be in trouble from a legal/licensing point of view?
Your best bet is to look at the license directly, which is a 3-clause BSD license. There is no restriction on the usage in commercial applications.
Reliable legal advice is most likely available from a lawyer of your choice.

I wanted to know which are the top 5 IDE's in the market today for development/maintenance of C/C++ applications? I am looking for both windows and linux based IDE's. They can by open source or proprietary.
Visual Studio is the most popular IDE. I would say it allows large companies to make (internal) mediocre software really fast, which allows them to get back to their 'real' jobs.
As for Linux C/C++ IDEs, I'm a big fan of QT Creator myself. It can be found from your distributions repos, or the QT website itself: http://qt.nokia.com/products/developer-tools/
Eclipse also has a C/C++ version, I haven't tried it though. But based on their Java version, I would bet it is fairly heavy: http://www.eclipse.org/
