We have started an experiment by putting up a #linux-india IRC channel on irc.freenode.net . Even as I write this at 10:00 AM in the morning, we have a good discussion going on in the channel. Please do join us.
Bhaskar has written a micro-howto on how you can join us.
micro-howto to show you how to get hooked to #linux-india ---------------------------------------------------------
The #linux-india IRC channel is up and running on irc.freenode.net. Please visit or idle in the channel to make it better.
This micro-howto will show you how to get hooked to #linux-india:
1. Get hold of an IRC (internet relay chat) client. Some of the good ones are:
bitchx - Advanced Internet Relay Chat client ircii - Internet Relay Chat client xchat - IRC client for X similar to AmIRC xchat-gnome - IRC client for GNOME similar to AmIRC mozilla-chatzilla - Mozilla Web Browser - irc client kvirc - Fully scriptable graphical IRC client with plugin support konversation - user friendly Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client for KDE
2. connect to irc.freenode.net with your favourite IRC client ( please remember not to run irc as *root* unless you are on crack) for example, if you are running bitchx, type the following on a prompt: $bitchx irc.freenode.net
3. Once you get online, register your nick. First see that your nick is what you want. if its not, type: /nick
then register the nick: /msg nickserv register
4. to join the linux-india channel, type : /join #linux-india
Thats it. If this is the first time you are using IRC, you can see the IRC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) and Help Files (http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/faq.html) for a more detailed introduction. For more, ask for help in the channel.
regards, Bhaskar
