screen-sharing button dulled-out, why?

[ero87]

Hey,

I'm using Leopard on my iMac G5, adn the screen-sharing button is dulled out in iChat, for every buddy I select. Does this function not work for PPC macs?

If so, could someone maybe compile a list of Leopard functions that don't work on PPC (and maybe workarounds, if they exist?) Thanks so much!

Is screen sharing enabled on the other mac in the sharing prefs?

Yes, it works with PPC macs. I have a G5 and have shared my screen and had my screen shared through iChat. Your buddy must be running Leopard to share screens.
