What is IRC?

#manjaro IRC is a place to provide additional direct support to Manjaro users.

You can connect to the #manjaro channel on irc.libera.chat.

  • Frequent users will probably prefer an IRC client like Weechat, Hexchat, or Konversation
  • One-time users will probably prefer a web-based chat, such as https://web.libera.chat/#manjaro

It's not a replacement for the forum, but supplements it with direct community support. Sometimes it is quiet and sometimes busy, but we will try to help.

Also, sometimes the reason it is busy is that the conversation has gone off-topic!

For further issues that can't be solved on IRC there is always the Forum.

How do I use Manjaro IRC?

Connect to #manjaro on irc.libera.chat using one of methods noted above.

When you are logged in, into the standard IRC client you have an name like Manjarouser. The #manjaro channel now requires you to use a registered user name. If you do not, you will be re-directed to #manjaro-unregistered.

You can change temporarily your nick with: 

/nick [your nickname]

For example, to set your nick as "John", you would enter the following: 

/nick John

The only rule of the IRC Channel is to be friendly. Just be your friendly self, and you'll find a lot of other friendly people to socialize with and receive support from.

Asking questions on IRC

  1. Ask the question. You don't need to ask for permission to ask, or to find out if anyone is willing to answer the question.
  2. Make sure you have time to wait for an answer (10 minutes is a bare minimum). If you don't get an answer, it's likely people don't know, are in the middle of writing one or didn't notice your question.
  3. Try to be concise with your question.
  4. Even if you see a lot of people listed on the channel, this doesn't mean that they are actually present.
  5. When sending reports (especially multi-line reports) please use an Pastebin service like pastebin.com
