Trying to set up IRC but I do not understand a thing. Program is KDE Konversation. Can you point me to the pertinent info? Never used that in my life. The nick is quite straightforward but the "Autoidentify"? What kind of server to choose, what password? Puzzled. Is my nick my email?
I don't use Konversation, but I do use IRC. If you have installed SeaMonkey with Chatzilla already installed, or if you install the Chatzilla addon in SeaMonkey or Firefox, then you can goto opensuse IRC directly by pasting one of the following into the browser urlbar: irc://freenode/#opensuse irc://freenode/#opensuse-factory Auto identification isn't always necessary. It's something one does only after registering on an IRC server. Most servers have a help mechanism so you can learn how to do whatever is required or desired with that server, such as registering a "nick" (your IRC name or "handle"). Once you understand how things work you should be able to transfer what you learned into using Konversation. Or, you could try the first Google hit I found: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:IRC_for_newbies -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
