Hi, I'm having trouble with the IRC chat. When I login at the #trisquel chat with my user name (Hein), it says the name is already taken. I should choose a different name or enter my password. When I enter my password (the same as on this site) though, it says the password is wrong. Is my user name supposed to be registered automatically or dies someone else already use the name? And what password am I supposed to enter?

Cheers,
Hein

I believe somebody else uses the same name.

If you did not create an IRC account, you do not need a password. Just try with a different user name like Hein_ or real_Hein and you should be able to login and still be recognizable as the Trisquel forum user Hein.

IRC accounts are not linked to Trisquel forum user accounts.

I see, thank you.
