abarbarian Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hi I am trying to set up Hexchat for the first time. I have read the " [Tutorial] Linux IRC client installation (Ubuntu) ". However in the tutorial non of the spoilers show anything, well a couple of them show a tiny bit of text.Have tried with Arch and Windows 7, with FF, IE9 and Iron (a Chrome clone) and no pictures show. I need to see the pictures so i can see an example of what I need to place in various check boxes.Any ideas folks. Love the icon selection.

† Emotional Outlet Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 The problem with Elchzard's post isn't the spoilers, it's that the forum isn't parsing his image links. I've gone through a few of the links and they seem to all still be live. If no one gets to it before me, I'll rehost the images and replace the ones in the tutorial after I get back this afternoon. In the meanwhile, you might be able to find a bit of help in the Hexchat tutorial for another OS. I don't know if the program differs wildly from OS to OS, but it might be worth a shot, haha.

abarbarian Posted April 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hi your linked page shows the useful pictures for Xchat for windows but I recon it will help me. I'll post back when I boot into my Arch and try to set it up.Many thanks for the help and speedy reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† Emotional Outlet Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 I know it's for Windows, it's a temporary measure until I have time to fix up the Linux one, haha. If it helps, it helps. If not, the Linux one will be ready this afternoon~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abarbarian Posted April 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 It certainly did help. I just wanted to make sure I put the right stuff in the right place an I am better with pictures than words. Your revamp of the linux section is looking good. You could add to the linux walkthrough, Arch Linux -- Hexchat and xchat packages 64bit and 32bit can be found here, https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=xchat An they can be installed with, pacman -S hexchat pacman -S xchat or yaourt -S hexchat yaourt -S xchat Might help someone out. Though most Arch users are a bit smarter than me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† Emotional Outlet Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I don't really want to go messing around with other people's work more than I have to, haha. The images should be rehosted and working (at least they are on my end). You can drop in that nugget at the end of the thread though, for other people to see~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
