I don't think there's an obvious way. It may be something that's acheivable using dbus scripts? Might be worth asking in this thread.

If you tap on the clock - it will appear menu with "Availability" setting, from which you can see your Skype status. Set to "Busy", or "Not available".
I think this relates on your Skype/Google Talk status. It do not related to your call status - you can still receive/call.
Hope this helps you.
Regards.

I believe the OP is asking for an automatic away/busy setting, not a manual one. Great idea! Time for a brainstorm?

I've toyed with the idea of autoaway myself and have so far created this little python "daemon"
(This Work in progess, I take no resposibility to what might happen to your device. Use it at your own cost and peril)
It listens on the DBUS for status of the screen. When the screen has been off for "awaydelay" seconds, it sets (again through DBUS) "xmppaccount" away. It doesn't bring the account back online when the screen is turned on again in the current state.
If you would like to test it out:
1) Save the contents of the above to a file e.g. called n900autoaway.py on your device, install one ekstra package called python-telepathy (which is required).
2) Edit the "awaydelay" and "xmmpaccount" to suit you. A list of conversation DBUS names for you Conversation accounts can be obtained through:
3) Once edited you start it from the terminal with:
python n900autoaway.py.
Take it as it is. Maybe I'll improve it, maeybe I won't. Make suggestions, make improvements, make whatever :-)
Best regards,
Lasse
PS: btw I have no idea if this works with skype accounts so this may be off topic

Thanks all, particularly lasseaagren. This looks very interesting and while I don't know Python, it seems easy enough to read.
I would love to say that I'll give this a go this evening, but unfortunately I have just broken the screen of my N900 - argh. What's worse: I live in Canada where Nokia "do not sell that model", and so apparently I will have to send my phone to the US for repair and I will need a US address for the purpose.
Look forward to giving this a try... eventually

You can modify the script here : http://wiki.maemo.org/DbusScripts#wh..._on_noisy_ring
The dbus-scripts configuration will be :
Code:
/usr/bin/logit.sh * * com.nokia.mce.signal tklock_mode_ind *

My question is: is there a way to cause the N900 to set my Availability to 'Busy' or some other status when the phone locks?
I have mine set to autolock after 30 minutes, and at this point I would like the phone to set my availability to Busy (or possibly even offline). By extension, this would only really be useful if my status then reset to 'Available' (or whatever) when I unlock the phone.
I have poked about in the settings, read the FAQ & suggested threads, searched the forums and have googled the entire interweb without finding an answer to my question. If I have missed something obvious, please let me know [gently]
