I've been using Colloquy. Not great but gets the job done.

I can't get it to open up chat rooms. I enter in the room name and it goes entirely blank. And their help files are rubbish.

Try Help > Colloquy Chat Room. I'm there as 'jane', and maybe I'm not there all the time, but I can try to help when I am :)

Also you might want to try building from svn, I've got some builds up on http://janeylicious.com/colloquy/ if you're interested.

Also if Colloquy isn't your thing, there's also LimeChat and Linkinus. I've got lots of bitching that Colloquy's a dead project (with commits from a day ago...) and people who decide to switch have found those two clients to be useful, although Linkinus is shareware.

Try prefixing the channel name with a hash (#).
