Tap Save To Card to finish. Finally, press your DS's Start button to connect IRCDS.
Once the screen says Now talking in @bitlbee. Type the following, this just needs to be done once.
- register password (change password to a unique password for bitlbee)
- account add msn [email protected] msnpassword (change [email protected] to your MSN email address and msnpassword to your MSN password)
- account on (this enables your MSN account)
MSN is now live on screen. To connect the next time type:
- identify password (where password is the bitlbee password you selected above)
You can click the Face icon to view your contacts.
Custom Skins
You can find a sample skin in ircds.ini. Use HTML color codes to change it, for example:
bottom_bg = #FF50B0
Controls
Start- (Re)connect
Select - Disconnect
B - Part from a channel
L/R - Give back your previous message
X/Y - Change backlight
D-Pad - Scroll the upper screen
