Re: Debian Forums IRC
what's IRC (before anyone says it, I'm not being sarcastic. I AM that clueless sometimes)
for as long as the world remains. for as long as time remains. so, too, will I remain. To serve. To help. And to make my contribution. Also, never forget our family at debianuserforums.org If we can't solve your problem, they probably can.

Re: Debian Forums IRC

some usefull infos, it`s merely a short intro, are to be found in oswaldkelsos beginners guide. near to the bottom.
(i couldn`t squeeze out one bit of info from IRC so far, but that might be me)

Re: Debian Forums IRC
I set up my irc client back when mez first posted. (google was my friend because I didn't know either.) for the first couple of weeks there was no traffic or information so I stopped logging in. I'll go back now and see what's there.

OK, I'm back online using pidgin. It shows that besides me Mez and penpen are also on line.

A bit off-topic... I sometimes like to setup phpfreechat, for people to chat in an IRC-like environment through their browser, rather than asking people not familiar with IRC, to install and configure an IRC client.

Re: Debian Forums IRC
That is a good idea. A irc webchat link on the main forum page. For those that are too impatient to wait for help on the forum.wizzardx wrote:A bit off-topic...

Debian IRC Chat Wiki here.Polaris96 wrote:what's IRC (before anyone says it, I'm not being sarcastic. I AM that clueless sometimes)
IRC Chat Wikipedia page here.
Basically chat-rooms for nerds (and others) using a specific lightweight chat program, i.e. xchat (actual repository packagename).
Sample pic of IRC in action here.
