dLimitI cant get the pc speaker to beep while running irssi in screen08:37
Kilosmy irssi doesnt beep at all08:38
dLimitOne needs to ensure that beel_beeps is set to "ON" and beep_msg_level is correct and that the pcspkr kernel module is loaded08:40
Kilosstill reading up on how to make it come here automatically08:41
dLimitthats easy08:42
Kiloslol08:42
Kilosi got rteadme and all to see how to configure it08:43
Kilosreadme08:43
dLimitdo /network add -nick nickname -user username -realname whatever Freenode08:43
dLimitthen /server add -auto -network Freenode irc.freenode.net 666708:43
dLimitthen /channel add -auto #ubuntu-za Freenode08:44
Kilosdo that in an open irssi? or in the conf file08:44
dLimitDo this while irssi is open08:45
Kilosok i try08:45
dLimitOh I think one needs to set -autosendcmd "^msg nickserv identify password" to the /network comamand08:45
dLimitjust see /help on each of those commands if they have errors08:46
Kilosso one starts with /set -autosendcmd   ?08:48
dLimitnot it would be /network08:49
dLimitjust add the -autosendcmd after the -realname whatever switch before the Freenode part08:49
Kilosok let me try figure this all out08:50
dLimitkwl bananas. Cheers Kilos I'm out. Chat later.08:53
