Greetings all,

I'm new to HexChat, and somehow I wiped out the server in the Network
List that has the server in it for accessing  LinuxMint-help and -chat
(it did it by automatically by default when opening HexChat through
Linux Mint 19.1).

I've since removed the config files and reopened HexChat, which
immediately brings up a clean Network list, but I don't remember what
that darned Network is called, and nothing listed looks familar for
the server I need.

Originally, I was using this ([https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.
php?f=42&t=266175](https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=2
66175)) as a guide to get it working, but this doc doesn't show what
the network name is for getting to LinuxMint-help and -chat.

So I need to know what network I need to add and what server(s) I need
to add. Oh, and please, include them exactly as I am to type them in

Server [irc.spotchat.org/6697](https://irc.spotchat.org/6697)

ultimately you could also do

$mv \~/.config/hexchat/serverlist.config
\~/.config/hexchat/serverlist.config-bak

then

$sudo apt clean

$sudo apt install hexchat

​

Last cmd will bring in the default settings and list
