As I wanted to learn Linux better, after using Fedora for a while I installed Arch Linux. Install was ok and working fine. But while I was installing KDE desktop environment, I didn't choose default(all) option, rather I choose randomnly a number for every step. KDE got installed and working. However I didn't used KDE before. I'm suspecting everything didn't installed. Did I made mistake choosing a random option instead choosing default? Can I install those packages for KDE?

It's recommended to choose "all" from the group plasma under Pacman to have a full working desktop environment.
But, not choosing "all" is not a mistake at all.
You can at any time install the package you want one by one with:
pacman -S nameOfPackage
or install all non-installed packages from plasma with:
pacman -S plasma

Is there apt-get install analog command in Buildroot? I want to install some applicatin but how?
From documentation of BuildRoot:
Buildroot is not meant to be a distribution
(or rather, a distribution generator.) It is the opinion of most
Buildroot developers that this is not a goal we should pursue.
We prefer to push Buildroot in a direction that makes it easy
(or even easier) to generate complete root filesystems. This is what
makes Buildroot stands out in the crowd (among other things, of
course!) We believe that for most embedded Linux systems, binary
packages are not necessary, and potentially harmful.
So, It seems No! you can not do that by using apt. you need to directly add your packages based on documentation
By default in LINUX/UBUNTU Operating system is having apt-get installed so you can directly start using sudo apt-get install [Package Name that you want to install]

I've received a linux-yocto box. I now I'm trying to installing some software, on ubuntu I use apt-get but it seems not to work/installe. so I've tried yum same result.
so my question is, is there a way to find out which package manager is install on my linux system ?
thanks in advance !
Yocto is using either rpm, dpkg, or opkg as the package manager. If the tools are installed on the image, which isn't a requirement, then the binaries are either dnf (or yum if it is a really old release), apt-get, or opkg respectively.
There's a reasonable chance that you've been given an image without a package manager or a working feed though. The joy of Yocto is that it is so flexible, so you should ask whoever gave you the software.

I'm running through an AngularJS tutorial, and in the get started section it says:
In Debian based distributions, there is a name clash with another
utility called node. The suggested solution is to also install the
nodejs-legacy apt package, which renames node to nodejs.
apt-get install nodejs-legacy npm
nodejs --version
npm --version
I don't understand what a Debian based distribution means, even after going to https://packages.debian.org/sid/nodejs-legacy
As a side note, I've used Angular and Node before in other tutorials, so I am not sure if I should follow this get-started part. I'm sort of going with it now because I installed nvm without intending to or understanding what it is for.
Loosely if the Linux distribution is using dpkg and using the apt package manager you could consider it a Debian Based distribution ie Debian/Ubuntu. There are quite a few, you can see a list here...
https://www.debian.org/misc/children-distros
Wikipedia has a good page with more details on Linux distributions. The Debian list can be found here...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_distributions#Debian-based
It's worth clicking on the image to see just how many distributions Debian has spawned.

Helllo, I'm using Debian 8 and it runs correctly, but I restart my computer after installing icons and gnome shell extensions and that happened :(
any ideas?
Translate to English "Network services system are not compatible with this version"
Thank you for help
If there are incompatibilities, I would suggest you run the 'upgrade manager', and let it check if there are packages which have to be update.
How did you install the icons and what did you install from gnome? An extension?
Try this:
sudo apt-get --reinstall install network-manager
I think your installation, or your last update, was interrupted and incomplete.

I have prepared partition, Mint iso and Windows 7. Can I easily install Mint directly from Windows without using pen drive or CD?
You should not do that. You create another partition and put a Linux live image there. Then you boot this system and install Linux Mint like you would from CD or USB
You shouldn't have many issues.
During the install on Mint, you will be allowed to select install options. If Mint detects a preexisting OS, it defaults to "install along side OS xxx."
I believe from there you can select your partition or create new ones.
