@Rhinoceros - I finally got screen sharing to work under KDE with Wayland. Looks like I'm using the same versions as you:

  • Zoom 6.2.10
  • pipewire 1.2.6

I followed the Screen share section on the Zoom wiki page:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings

The only thing I didn't need to do was set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome. I followed the other steps, and now I can choose my desktop/window to share. Prior to following the wiki I couldn't stop screen sharing without the hanging issue, which I was experiencing prior to 6.2.10.

I contacted the zoom support on 13th July 2016 and tried to lure them into creating a proper PKGBUILD respectively adopting this one, considering they are providing a package over very none standard ways to the Arch Linux community (downloading via a *foreign* site) and not through the official repo or the AUR. However there was little to no progress so far.

What URL are you guys using to download Zoom? It is pretty disastrous for this to keep happening to this app.

Thanks @Smoerrebroed, your workaround works fine for me on Plasma/Wayland.

After creating a symlink /usr/libexec --> /usr/lib sharing works again for me. I do see the ListModel2<T, Key>::getItemIndex(): key not exists! error, but that doesn't seem to affect sharing.

Good enough for now, but Zoom should fix this upstream.

I downgraded to 6.0.12-1 and sharing is working, even on KDE Plasma 6.1.

Thanks @redmnic. I was just about to mention the sharing issues. There also is a thread in the Zoom forums about this: https://community.zoom.com/t5/Zoom-Meetings/share-screen-linux-wayland-broken/m-p/184446

The latest issues with screen sharing seem to stem from xdg-desktop-portal. I made some partial progress: As other noted, setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gome restores the dialog, but there are no sharing options. Logs show Zoom looks for /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal (arch has it under /usr/lib). Adding a corresponding symlink /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal -> /usr/lib/xdg... restores the options as well. But they don't work for me (with sway). The second I select an option an try to share I get this in the logs: "ListModel2<T, Key>::getItemIndex(): key not exists!" (SIC) I got no further for now. Posting in the hopes that it helps someone with more xdg-desktop-portal and Zoom foo.

Thank you very much robbystk for posting this solution. It works for me

@ronw Yeah, looks like Zoom has again arbitrarily added restrictions for other DEs.

I tried editing the .config/zoomus.conf file and set enableWaylandShare=true but that didn't have any effect.

I also set xwayland=false which resulted in zoom crashing when trying to screen share.

I tried setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome and it did get rid of the error message and showed the screen share window. But no option to actually share screen. Only whiteboard visible.

I upgraded to 6.1.0-1 and trying to share my screen is displaying the window that only GNOME is supported on Wayland.

I run KDE Plasma and haven't seen that for at least the last couple of versions.

fwiw, 6.1.0-1 is playing well with wayland, even without xwayland. It is a nice change of pace.
