Internet Relay Chat
All our official IRC channels can be found on freenode.
All of our channels are managed by volunteers for the mutual benefit
of users and contributors alike, and we consider IRC to be open to everyone.
Please feel free to pop in and introduce yourself, and consider it a resource
for when you run into problems or have questions about Gentoo Linux.
We ask very little of users visiting our support channels on freenode:
- Please act sensibly and maturely, abiding by the Code of Conduct.
- Please read the topic when entering a channel, it contains valuable information!
- Bots or scripts that talk are not welcome in most channels. If in doubt, please ask.
- Please do not use CTCP VERSION or the like on users / channels without their consent.
- Please note we operate a clean-language policy in #gentoo, and swearing is not permitted.
- Please also note we are unable to support alternate package managers in #gentoo, just Portage!
It should be noted that we do not provide support for derivative distributions based upon Gentoo Linux.
