All I know is that whenever there is a flat or a sharp on a certain line or space then that note is sharp or flat.

Ex.:

F ---#---

D ------

B ------

G ------

E ------

Since there's a sharp on F then all F's in the music are sharp.

What does a trumpet's D minor key signature look like?

All the key signatures look the same regardless of what instrument they are designed to played for. However, there was a trend in the 19th century to occasionally omit key signatures from the trumpet parts, although it was rare. The D Minor key signature has one flat, and would be shown like this at the beginning of the staff:

What valve combinations on a trumpet would be the same key as the bugle?

If the bugle is in the normal key of B-flat, then the notes played by the bugle correspond to the open notes of the trumpet - no valves pressed down at all. If the bugle is in a different key than the trumpet, you will need to transpose the bugle notes into the key of the trumpet to find which notes to play on the trumpet. After you have done the transposition, it should be the case that the same valve combination can be used for all the bugle notes in that key.
