First of all, IRC is not official FBSD support means. Although some =
really
learned people hang out there. The problem you are facing is, you need =
to
have a registered nick to join the channel. Register your nick with the
services to join the channel

It means you need a registered handle and hostname with FreeNode for the 
#FreeBSD channel

 im new in irc if anyone can help me in this
 shortcomming.
...type the following command in you irc client.
/msg nickserv IDENTIFY your_chosen_password_here_less_the_angle_brackets
You'll have to re-run that command everytime you connect to the FreeNode 
network.

 Thank in advance.
No worries Jesus.

Be aware however, from my experience, IRC should be a last resort for
getting help.  If you want to hang out and learn some cool stuff,
that's encouraged.  But if you begin asking questions that are covered
in the handbook and easily found from google you're liable to get  a
negative response.  It's best to lurk a while since you're new to irc
to get the feel of things.  And trust me, you will learn alot just
listening in.
