Puppy Linux Internet Relay Chat
IRC is a form of instant communication over the Internet. It is intended for group (many-to-many) communication in discussion forums called channels, but also allows one-to-one communication.Using Puppy
The easiest way to join our chatroom when you are using Puppy is to click on the Chat icon on the desktop.Using IRC Programs
If you have a IRC-enabled browser (e.g. Opera or SeaMonkey/Firefox with ChatZilla installed), go to irc://irc.freenode.net/puppylinux in your browser and then pick your nickname. If that doesn't work then with other IRC-capable programs like attym, Pidgin/Gaim, X-Chat, irrsi, etc. enter irc.freenode.net as the chat server and #puppylinux as the channel in the appropriate places.Accessing the Puppy Linux Chat Without an IRC Program Installed
If you have no IRC program installed or prefer not to you may use the Freenode Web Access site and any browser. You may either enter any nickname you wish but to use a Freenode registered nickname then check the box for “Auth to services” and also enter your username and password.Freenode Policies
Use of the Freenode-hosted channel is subject to Freenode's policies and guidelines.For lots more, please see our PuppyLinuxIRC older IRC chat wiki page.
