I'm running  Empathy 2.30.2 on Ubuntu 10.04 amd64. Group chat works for
me, except you have to follow specific instructions to get it working as
instructed here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1460575.

Here's the instructions found at the link:

1) Connect to your google talk account with Empathy
2) In Contact List click on Room then Join
3) Make sure you have you google account selected
4) The room name must be "private-chat-<uuid>" (check below how to get uuid)
5) The server should be "groupchat.google.com
6) Click join!

In your terminal run "uuidgen" you will get a number similar to this
"c9e943d0-ec5a-47d9-9151-c5c35d971e34".

So your room name will be

private-chat-c9e943d0-ec5a-47d9-9151-c5c35d971e34
