[00:43] <mx23> hi
[00:44] <mx23> good N. i need help
[00:47] <mx23> I want to record a Windows USB ISO in GTP, I can't find as
[00:49] <mx23> :(
[00:50] <guiverc> mx23, we support Xubuntu here, not windows, and I don't know what you mean with GTP
[00:52] <mx23> MBR (Master Boot Record) or the GPT to create partitions on your hard drive. The GPT partition scheme is more modern and is required for system startup
[01:00] <guiverc> that's clearer, but you said GTP (not GPT). The MBR is the first 512 bytes of disk so easy; GPT generally refers to GUID partition table which can be many locations; often last 33 sectors (gpt header anyway) and a PMBR at the start of disk
[01:01] <mx23> sorry MR
[01:03] <mx23> I want to record a USB that works with GPT partitions; sorry mi bad english
[01:11] <guiverc> mx23, sorry i can't help, but I note `UEFI booting does not involve any "boot" flag, booting relies solely on the boot entries in NVRAM.`  ie. some of info appears to be stored on an actual machine, not drive/usb  (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Partitioning#Master_Boot_Record_(partition_table)
[01:13] <mx23> Thank you very much Sir
[01:38] <xubuntu59w> using plank, when I open panel preferences, it appears as an open app in plank, but when I close panel preferences, it still appears as an open app, even though, I've closed the panel preferences, is there a fix for this?
[10:00] <tibyke> what is the proper way to upgrade xenial version to bionic from an external repository (percona). I still have xenial version but repo already updated to bionic.
[10:02] <pmjdebruijn> you may want to eloborate
[10:03] <pmjdebruijn> presumably you have a server on 16.04 that uses the percona ppa? and you want to do-release-upgrade that to 18.04 ?
[10:03] <tibyke> its already upgraded to bionic, all fine.
[10:03] <pmjdebruijn> ok? then what's the issue?
[10:03] <tibyke> the percona.list was also upgraded (by percona-release binary)
[10:03] <pmjdebruijn> that seems what you want, no?
[10:04] <tibyke> https://pastebin.com/7SgcrY7A
[10:04] <tibyke> this
[10:04] <pmjdebruijn> that's a broken ppa is my guess
[10:05] <pmjdebruijn> because version 5.7.26-29-1.xenial is higher than 5.7.26-29-1.bionic
[10:05] <pmjdebruijn> if you remove the packages, and then apt-get update, and then apt-get install them again, it should be fine after that
[10:05] <pmjdebruijn> do make sure to backup any data/configs
[10:05] <tibyke> mkay, let me try it, thanks
[10:05] <tibyke> I thought there was an easier way :)
[10:05] <pmjdebruijn> but this is why I avoid PPAs like the plague on production machines
[10:06] <pmjdebruijn> tibyke: this is an error on the PPAs maintainers part
[10:06] <tibyke> yes, sure
[10:08] <tibyke> okay, it did the trick, thank you
[10:08] <tibyke> I still have some *xenial packages though. should I worry or just live with it?
[10:11] <pmjdebruijn> totally depend on what they are
[10:12] <pmjdebruijn> run ubuntu-support-status
[13:22] <qwebirc65069> hello
[13:22] <diogenes_> hi
[13:22] <qwebirc65069> I have trouble verifying ISO
[13:23] <qwebirc65069> I am trying to get key, but I get this message:  keyserver timed out gpg: keyserver receive failed: keyserver error
[13:27] <qwebirc65069> hello, just to check if I am still online
[13:28] <diogenes_> !patience | qwebirc65069
[13:29] <qwebirc65069> I see ok
[13:30] <qwebirc65069> By the way that error message "gpg: keyserver timed out" "gpg: keyserver receive failed: keyserver error" I think I got that same message a couple of year ago as well.
[13:31] <qwebirc65069> It seems it's like that every time when I try to do this "gpg --keyid-format long --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 0x46181433FBB75451 0xD94AA3F0EFE21092"
[23:55] <friendlyGoat> is there a way i could go about making it so the quick black before my login prompt appears where its the login in a text only mode format, isnt there? i want it to go straight to gui without stopping there for a second
[23:58] <an3223> @friendlyGoat if you're talking about the scrolling text at boot, that
[23:58] <an3223> sorry didn't finish typing, hold up
