IRC is the main way to contact the Libreboot project. `#libreboot` on Freenode
|
||
|
IRC.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Webchat:
|
||
|
<https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreboot>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Freenode is one of the oldest IRC networks, used for Free Software projects.
|
||
|
Find more about them here: <https://freenode.net/>
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you wish to connect using your preferred client (such as weechat or irssi),
|
||
|
the connection info is as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Server: `chat.freenode.net`
|
||
|
* Channel: `#libreboot`
|
||
|
* Port (TLS): `6697`
|
||
|
* Port (non-TLS): `6667`
|
||
|
|
||
|
We recommend that you use port `6697` with TLS encryption enabled.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here are some guides for various IRC clients:

Tor

|
||
|
|
||

You can use Tor, when connecting to Freenode. This may be beneficial, because

Freenode is censored in some countries. Read this article:
