@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.

zoom 6.2.6 will start in an XFCE X11 session when GDK_BACKEND is set to wayland. Screen sharing also seems to work, which might mean that the zoom initialization logic which deals with the current environment may have an issue.

E.g. GDK_BACKEND=wayland zoom

If GDK_BACKEND is set to x11, the GUI will not start. Tested on Manjaro.

Upgraded to zoom 6.2.6-1. I still don't get a GUI when I run zoom from the command line.

(People have reported similar issues, but this is a follow up from my original comment here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zoom#comment-995848)

@coreyberla I confirm that 6.2.6 does not resolve freezes when stopping screen sharing (gnome wayland)

6.2.6 out, support told me that fixes the freezing issue (after stopping screen sharing), and it.... doesn't.

ericputney commented on 2024-10-25 17:36 (UTC)

Just as others have reported, 6.2.5 did NOT fix the crash on ending screen sharing. I am on pipewire 1.2.6.

cyberpunkrocker commented on 2024-10-25 14:06 (UTC)

Ugh, zoom-6.2.5 is completely broken, no GUI even when started from terminal. Each release of 6.2 series just gets worse and worse...

I installed zoom (yay -S zoom). The installation works correctly (AFAICT). I am using LXQt as Desktop Environment from a relatively fresh install.

When I run zoom from the command line (simply type zoom, no GUI comes up).

The zoom_stdout_stderr.log in /home/myuser/.zoom/logs:

[myuser@galago-pro logs]$ cat zoom_stdout_stderr.log

I can confirm, 6.2.5 does not solve the freezing when ending a screen share on Manjaro/Gnome with pipewire 1:1.2.5-0.

VanClaussen commented on 2024-10-24 07:49 (UTC)

Tested 6.2.5 -- still not fixed for KDE on Wayland (freeze on screen share stop and it's only possible to share all screens).
