FYI, re: my "floating meeting controls" question a while back, apparently they've moved that setting ("Always show meeting controls") to the "General" section of settings (see https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/UNABLE-TO-SHOW-HIDE-MEETING-CONTROLS/m-p/13252) and have enabled it by default in recent releases. It was easy enough to turn off, now that I know where the setting is.

Interesting is, that flatpak version of same Zoom v5.14.2 is working on same laptop (without tweaking SUID permissions, etc) but not AUR version. Here are installed packages via flatpak:

@DukeHarris - no, qt6-wayland
does not help as my error message is:
Client: Breakpad is using Single Client Mode! client fd = -1
libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)
Mentioned ~/.zoom/logs/zoom_stdout_stderr.log
didn't contain any Qt-related issues
Besides, I have already qt6-wayland
package installed. Still same error and Zoom won't start. Also I have nVidia GPU. Computers without nVidia GPU there will that chrome-sandbox SUID trick help but not with nvidia GPU.
DukeHarris commented on 2023-04-14 09:12 (UTC)
@zeroconf I had the same issues you're describing and managed to fix them by installing qt6-wayland
Zoom would also simply not start for me and I found this in ~/.zoom/logs/zoom_stdout_stderr.log
:
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
This brought me to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wayland#Qt which mentions installing qt5-wayland
or qt6-wayland
for Wayland support in Qt.
I hope this helps

Still having issues with v5.14.2-1 in same laptop, where initially reported.
My installation permissions and issues are written here.
The previous test was done in desktop PC, where I somehow succeeded to run Zoom 5.14.0 - possibly because there is no nVidia GPU but only integrated Intel one (Intel HD Graphics 530).
Currently using flatpak version (which is still v5.13.11.1288) as a quick workaround on that laptop with dual GPU (Intel, nVidia but nVidia is in use). Thank you for clean build tutorial but for now didn't have enough time to hack.
Found similar issue on zoom community forum but disabling sandbox (zoom --disable-gpu-sandbox
) didn't help either, even SUID were or were not applied to /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox
. Also I removed ~/.zoom/
folder before each attempt to start zoom. Direct link to my post in Zoom forum with more detailed information about my hardware on different PCs. Also counterpart post in nVidia forum.

zeroconf: glad you got it working too, and good callout on the new version - hopefully this manual setuid business won't be necessary much longer.
i recommend https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot for more information on clean chroot building - there are helper scripts in the devtools package, or if you prefer you can set up the chroots manually and build from them.

@ItsQuote - yes, sounds like that was the issue.
initially:
stat -c '%A %a %U %G %n' /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox
-rwxr-xr-x 755 root root /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox
then adding SUID
sudo chmod 4755 /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox
then checking:
stat -c '%A %a %U %G %n' /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox
-rwsr-xr-x 4755 root root /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox
... and Zoom is working again. Even didn't need to wipe ~/.zoom/ folder.
I understand, that this is probably Zoom own issue. For now is already version 5.14.2 (2046) out and currently already flagged as out of date. Perhaps new version has that permission issue fixed already. If anyone has reported that issue to Zoom. That's a good question, how such reporting is possible to Zoom. At least from Zoom website didn't find a way to report a bug (or any other issue) for free to Zoom. Looks like paid support allows to do that...
If any useful tutorial exist for clean building, it might be helpful.

@edh - That's not the answer I was hoping for (I was really hoping we could get it to launch without xwayland), but at least I know I'm not missing something.
Some
~/.config/zoomus.conf
updates:qt5-webengine
installed, and theebeddedBrowserForSSOLogin
line doesn't exist in my configzoomus.conf
. SSO login works just fine (issues with Firefox containers aside).pipewire-pulse
.system.audio.type
defaulted toalsa
for me (or I changed it without realizing it). I probably could have installedpipewire-alsa
and fixed my issues, but I setsystem.autio.type=pulse
(a lucky guess) and this worked. This should work for anyone using straight PulseAudio as well.If anyone finds documentation on
~/.config/zoomus.conf
, please let us know.edh commented on 2016-08-26 11:03 (UTC) (edited on 2017-03-09 10:48 (UTC) by edh)
