@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.

My setup:

  • MSI Prestige with a i7-1195G7
  • Intel graphics
  • Wayland
  • Pipewire audio

If I clean ~/.zoom, Zoom starts up and works fine (when not logged in).

If I try to log in, Zoom starts and I see a spinner saying "loading sidebar" and then zoom stops.

Logs are not very helpful:

Appreciate any thoughts on how to debug/fix this.

@zeynepseda bsdtar is not invoked directly in the PKGBUILD. I think your makepkg instance is misconfigured.

I've got the same issue as @neuronestanco and google hasn't been forthcoming.

Running GNOME / Wayland, attempting to open any of the in-call menus (e.g. "View" or the caret "^" menus beside the mic/camera icons) only works occasionally. Sometimes the menu appears to open but then quickly disappears entirely, other times the menu will be visible with no text. Usually if I click enough times I can get a functional menu to appear.

The only hint I have here is the following in the Zoom log, and I have no idea if it's normal:

QBasicTimer::start: Timers cannot have negative timeouts

To the maintainer and people who are running wayland and have an Nvidia graphics card the current version (5.14.10-1) is broken. The solution I had was to downgrade to zoom-5.14.7-1. For reference look at:

Please, there is a problem with the "view" window on the top left; it is necessary to click many times before the choice menu for the type of visualization appears

still zoom 5.14.7-1 won't start and even that sudo chmod 4755 /opt/zoom/cef/chrome-sandbox does not help - still same libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null) error :(

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:
