The chat room

122.

Another great place to find help is in the IRC chat room.

123.

To reach the chat room from within Linux Mint, launch :menuselection:`Menu --> Internet --> HexChat`.

124.

If you are using another operating system, you can use `Kiwiirc <https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.spotchat.org/?i#linuxmint-help>`_ to connect to the chat room.

125.

Many people are connected to the chat room but only look at it now and then. Be patient after asking a question. Don't repeat it and stay connected until you get an answer. It can sometimes take a few hours for somebody to see your question and reply to you. Don't quit after a few minutes. It is frustrating to you, but also to others who later see your question and are unable to reply because you already left.

126.

If you are using Hexchat, you can minimize it to tray by clicking its status icon. People will often mention your nickname when replying to you. When they do, your Hexchat status icon will blink to catch your attention.
