Hello to admins and fellow users, I’m a new user of jabber services and i have learned to use transports of Msn and Yahoo recently. IRC seems to be registering fine but i cant connect to the IRC server nor to the channels. Any standard manual/tips/instructions would be nice.  Thanking you in advance.

hmmm my question still unanswered:(

Sorry, we have no ready made instruction to provide.
If a user of Talkr.IM using IRC gateway would like to contribute it, this is very welcome.

Sorry, we have no ready made instruction to provide.

I have found a method/solution to this problem.

Example

chat room: <room_name>%<irc.server.com>
server: irc.talkr.im
handle: <nick name>

Hope that helps.

Bugs in transports/design:
1)User list gets added when person enters channel but never gets removed when left.
2)The transport is slow(chat update), and gets re-entered into the channel suddenly often.

I would like to ask if there is a way to connect to irc.mozilla.org because i am unable to. Can someone try to enter #firefox - i cannot even fallowing Comets instructions but i have no problem connecting to other servers like irc.freenode.net (using Miranda IM and Gajim).

Good to be back here.
The method i posted above are for using irc channel via XMPP messenger like pidgin for Windows pc and for bombus mobile xmpp client.

There is a bug with the IRC transport.

A user enters #room%server@irc.talkr.im, talkr will strip the # from the JID in the presence from field when it shouldn’t, this causes clients to drop the messages because their not from the JID the client software expected even though the connection was a success and the user joined the room.

Using room%server works fine but this is a change from all other IRC transports, expecting users to realize this will be a problem for anyone who decides to use the talkr.im irc transport.

The irc.talkr.im service needs to return the same JID the user specified in their request per the XEP spec and stop stripping # from JIDs.
