I use Empathy as chat client for IRC. Since it is the default chat client, I expected that I can update (availability) status from top menu, but it is disabled.

This have happened to me too a few times. What I did was:
Make sure empathy is actually running (there should be a little arrow in the Messages indicator).
Open Empathy and check to see if it have failed to connect to a im network (msn, google talk etc.).
Usually it's the latter.

Empathy is running and I'm chatting. I use it for a month now, connected to an IRC channel. Thanks. – umpirsky Jun 01 '11 at 07:32

Are you connecting just to an IRC channel or other accounts like googletalk, msn, etc.. ? – Nitin Venkatesh Jun 01 '11 at 09:03

Now I tried to add googletalk and it works with it. So I guess this is a bug? – umpirsky Jun 01 '11 at 09:15
