I have 3G internet stick, Tele2 Huawei MF190. Now, when I connect it with Ubuntu, Debian etc., it asks me for my PIN and I just choose my provider and everything works great.
Now, when I do the same thing on other Linux distributions (I think it was Arch, Gentoo) it's not working out-of-the-box. Now, what library I actually need to have for this to work?
Why? I'm going to try making my own distro (just-for-learning) from LinuxFromStratch project and I want to be sure to include this library for 3G Internet sticks.
Thank you all! :)
You need to setup usb-modeswitch.
Couple of general guides explaining how to configure it are available here and here.
Also this discussion explains the exact steps needed to get Huawei MF190 working on Linux with the help of usb-modeswitch.

I know that truecrypt isn't capable of creating a hidden OS but in another post someone describes the steps to do it manually and that he does it to all of his linux computers all of the time. Can anyone elaborate on his steps so that someone (like myself) who is not as experienced could accomplish this?
I would just ask this individual to provide more details but it appears as though their account is "anonymous" or something.
I developed something like you are describing.
Here https://github.com/antonio-petricca/buddy-linux you can find all the information and installation script.
Buddy linux allows you to install linux on (hidden) loop files (like for the link you provided), but providing GRUB loader by an external USB drive. So, removing, it will results in a Windows boot.
The other good stuff is that it is based on LVM, so you can extended file system "simply" by adding loop files as per your needs.
Regards.

I am trying to learn how to secure a linux servers, I have started it with basic logging and authentication. I would like to know if anyone can steal my logging info in default mode.If yes, then how can i secure it.
I have already googling, but answers were not satisfactory.
I think a good point to start from is Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux). SELinux is a kernel module, which assists you in maintaining and also securing a Linux server system. For an introduction into SELinux you might look into the red hat Linux documentation
With regard to logging you may consult:
The Gentoo wiki about SELinux

Is there like some sort of Linux layer for macOS? I've seen some projects that can only run on Linux because they require the Linux kernel to work. Something like Cygwin maybe.
Thanks
I haven't come across any Linux-on-macOS system other than full virtualisation with software such as VMWare Fusion, Parallels, VirtualBox, or xhyve.
macOS does implement (most of) POSIX; it also shares some of the BSDs' APIs such as kqueue/kevent, plus of course a bunch of custom user-kernel APIs, some of them inherited from Mach. There's also an X11 implementation. (although the results are rarely particularly attractive) A lot of Linux kernel APIs do have macOS equivalents, even if they're not identical. You should be able to port many (most?) projects which currently only work on Linux to the Mac; the amount of effort involved will of course vary. It'll usually be easier if it already works on a BSD.
You'll need to be more specific to get a more specific answer.

How can i download and use Microsoft Edge in Windows 8.1 ?
No. you can't.
Microsoft Edge is not a standalone browser (as of now). I've also tried many a times for some alternative but no..
I've tried finding the setup file of this browser from the Windows 10 installed OS but couldn't.
ps. In future it might be available.
For more info, you can join this conversation on Quora
A standalone version is not available. And Microsoft has no plans of releasing the edge browser on other versions of Windows besides 10 or any other platforms for that matter.
So to answer your question, you can't.
You can use a virtual machine if you want to use Edge on Windows.
You can read about this here.

does anybody know, if there is a desktop environment for linux-distros, that is completely based on terminals, but still is able to let the commands create windows (e.g. a browser, an email-program, multimedia, ...)?
Background is, that i want to use my old laptop again - but he is pretty slow and every little performance-saver would help a lot. Also i don't need much besides the terminal, email und a browser.
My research only brought up solutions, where the basic desktop-environment still runs in the background and though still uses system capacity.
Thanks in advance
I read about fvwm2. I also used it ( though it needs Xorg if I remember correctly ). Very minimalistic.
http://www.fvwm.org/
You must choose if you want a pure terminal (No X Server) and use apps like mutt for email and w3m for websurfing, or if you want a light desktop environment like openbox, i3wm, awesome...
You should look at MiniLinux distros, like DSL, or SliTaz
I have an old laptop which runs smoothly with SliTaz, but try and find which is best for you.
