First about TinyOS:

I don't know which 6LoWPAN Stack implementation do you use but I know
the BLIP stack for TinyOS only. [0]

But this is not rfc complaint it's based on draft-6lowpan-hc-06.

I don't know the exactly state of the 6LoWPAN stacks in TinyOS I only
tested it with contiki [1] which is rfc complaint.

About Linux:

I think kernel 3.8.13 has too the draft-6lowpan-hc-06 implementation
with very very huge bugs which is in a unusable state. Please use
net-next [2] and make your development on it. I heard you use a
beaglebone. My beaglebone boots with the current net-next kernel and
with a working ethernet and spi controller.

The linux side should be rfc complaint, we currently don't support such
things like stateless address compression but this is also not used in
contiki (I guess).

If you have a working solution (maybe try to sniff some packets with
wireshark) then follow the tutorial from trac wiki [3].
