Arch Slack



Join us for a 40-minute session with 3 of our Customer Experience experts who will provide a demo of a Slack workspace. During this session, our Customer Experience experts will cover: What is a workspace and how is it used; How to set-up your Slack workspace (create a. They are the relative newcomer Arch Linux (created in 2002) and venerable battle-tested Slackware Linux (created in 1993 and currently the oldest actively-maintained Linux distro—kids who were born when Slackware was released are driving cars today). We offer E-Z Arch Laminating Clamps and many more solutions for your radius millwork department. Make curved woodwork a profitable part of your business.

Note: Do not edit this page unless you are a channel op in #archlinux. You are welcome to use the discussion page.

To use Internet Relay Chat (IRC), you need an IRC client. The installation live environment includes the Irssi client.

You are expected to familiarize yourself with our Code of conduct and Code of conduct#irc before joining any of the official channels. For a list of commonly used abbreviations, see Arch terminology and IRC Jargon.

Main channels

Note: Due to abuse various gateways and web clients may be banned at times. If you experience trouble use a 'proper' IRC client or ask one of the operators for a ban exemption (+e).

This section is about #archlinux, the main Arch Linux support IRC channel, and #archlinux-offtopic, the main Arch Linux social channel, both available on the Freenode network.

The central topic for #archlinux is support and general discussion about Arch Linux.

Registration

In order to reduce spam #archlinux and #archlinux-offtopic have the channel mode set to +r and +q $~a. This means you have to be identified via NickServ to be able to join these channels and send messages, respectively. If you are not registered and identified, you will be forwarded to #archlinux-unregistered.

To register with NickServ, follow the freenode FAQ, as well as NickServ help when connected to chat.freenode.net:

Note:
  • If /query happens to not work in your client you can try using either /quote NickServ <command> or /msg NickServ <command>.
  • Some IRC clients have a race-condition where they try to autojoin channels before you have been identified with NickServ, and to solve it you need to enable SASL. Either look up your IRC client's documentation or look at the freenode SASL page to find instructions for how to enable it.
  • You can get a list of people who can help you by typing /msg ChanServ ACCESS #archlinux LIST, or join #freenode and ask there.
