I used X-Chat (http://www.xchat.org/) with no problems, which is available at universe repository:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=xchat&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

Other IRC clients can be read at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IRC_clients

Another IRC-client is Chatzilla - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatzilla
