@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:

  • SSO Login: I don't have qt5-webengine installed, and the ebeddedBrowserForSSOLogin line doesn't exist in my config zoomus.conf. SSO login works just fine (issues with Firefox containers aside).
  • Audio: I am using Pipewire via pipewire-pulse. system.audio.type defaulted to alsa for me (or I changed it without realizing it). I probably could have installed pipewire-alsa and fixed my issues, but I set system.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.

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.

@kriansa Thanks for the link, I will degrade ibus to an optional dependency with the next release.

@dmedinag I believe gst-plugin-pipewire is only an indirect dependency and not strictly required by zoom itself. Please correct me if I am wrong about this!

@edh: According to this thread, ibus is only required for remote control. Would you be willing to turn ibus into a optional dependency?

Screenshare did not work for me (Gnome-wayland) until I installed gstreamer's plugin for pipewire.

Installing gst-plugin-pipewire fixed the issue. Should this be added as a dependency?

I have two major problems with Zoom on Wayland: - I can't share screens, when I open the screensharing menu, the options for my screens and windows aren't there as they used to be with xorg. I've followed the instructions pointed from "Wayland screen share" at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings, but they won't work. - The security menu is black, so I can't, for example, enable others to share screen.

Thanks!

I can't get this to run at all in sway (pure wayland). I see others here saying it works in this setup, but I'm at a loss.

zoom started.
zoom started.
zoom was exited due to a handled signal: 5 
ZoomLauncher exit.
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=sway
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland

Any ideas?

Hi I'm running on some trouble with the package which I was unable to solve till now.

I have my windowing system working just fine (I'm using Xmonad + Lightdm + Xorg), I also changed the /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness to basically match the maximum brightness and again works fine, the problem comes when screen sharing on Zoom meetings. In that case my screen brightness decays a lot for me and for the shared content to the point I can't see a lot.

Is this a well known problem? I see below other issues when screen sharing but for me is just the brightness.

Sure, will do with the next release.
