Install and use xchat to take Ubuntu classes
Every once in a while the Ubuntu User Days Developer Team offers classes for Ubuntu users where you can join a chat room and ask your Ubuntu questions. One of those days is (with little warning from yours truly) today. Although IRC is, to many, a rather antiquated tool, others find it incredibly helpful. So I thought it would be a good idea to write a tutorial on installing and using one of the tried and true Linux chat clients xchat. Although the tool is simple to install (and often installed by default), many have no idea how to use the tool. By the end of this tutorial you will.
