This appears similar to my results here with an XO-1 /VM and Soas Mirabelle:

There was no collaboration available using the "adhoc" network connection,
or the link-local (no jabber listed on CP Network screen)
I could see the avitar of originating user and his application icon on
the second computer and join but was not able to get a working cursor on
either chat or write.
There must be a bug in collaboration when not using the Jabber presence
connection.
