I use pidgin for my N8x0 to get on IRC, it may not be the best IRC client, but it is also an IM client, and works alright.

I remember someone else asking about a CLI standalone IRC client in a screenshot, but I believe that was discovered to be running through an SSH session to a desktop, and the standalone IRC is not yet available for Fremantle, someone please correct me if I am wrong.

Pidgin works well but not very easy to work with. I think its available in Extras.

Seeing that picture, pidgin clearly is not the client to go with on that device

Hmm, I guess I'll try irssi first, that is always running in a screen on my server anyway. With the keyboard that should be workable.

frankly i was looking for something besides the obvious.... which is a term app, or an ssh expedition heh. trying to find a good guimclient for the masses.. im an old *****x veteran, i can use irssi if i need to, but would rather find something a lil more subtle if you get my drift

Fairly sure you'd have to build it from scratch for maemo, but weechat may be worth a look. A very tidy IRC client.

I have it on good authority that Lcuk is looking at putting IRC onto a liqbase app. So I suspect it's just a matter of time.
