Arch Linux User Repository

@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.

Hi. I'm in a zoom-meeting right now and rarely use it. But in the "Meeting Chat" a person has shared a "handout.pdf"-file. If I hover over the attachment, the tooltip says: "Click to download". If I click the 3 dots in the upper corner, I can also select/click "Download" - but in any case, nothing works. I think it's a permission problem, because I launched zoom from a link in my browser, but zoom has been installed as root. It's reaaaaaaaly annoying that this doesn't work under Arch Linux - if I join the zoom-meeting with my Android phone I can however download the attachment - but this is ridiculous... Anyone know what's wrong and is it a problem for everyone or only me, on Arch Linux?

Hi, i faced issue with Share Screen with zoom-5.13.7.683.But it also happened on previous version. While I'm sharing full display after 20 or more minutes my pc got frozen, I still can speek and hear, but can't turn of sharing somehow, cursor is frozen, shortcuts doesn't take effect. Beside sharing, the meeting is recording by zoom. It happens always, not by chance. I'am using kenrel 5.15.91-1-MANJARO and Wayland.

Is there some solution for this? Should i try X11?

Recent update broke the ability to click on http(s) links from the Zoom chat. Anyone else experience this?

Same error comes up with 5.13.7 as *.5 Something is still wrong around qt libs.

@keiichiiownsu12, sorry for the late reply. Yes, I was having the same error message as you. Downgrading to 5.13.4 for the moment also did the trick.

I've also had issues with 5.13.5-1, though I don't have any of the errors reported by others in zoom_stdout_stderr.log. Here's what a single run of 5.13.5-1 logs:

For now I've downgraded to the previous version I was using which still works fine.

Hi everyone,

over months (already long before kernel 6.x) I've got very high cpu usage as soon as I enable either my internal webcam of my X1 or my external HP webcam in zoom. My main monitor is a 4K 32" LG. But it makes no difference which cam I start and whether I place the fullscreen zoom window on the 4K LG monitor or on the X1 full hd monitor. All 8 cores run with over 90% cpu usage. If I reduce the window size to the possible minimum the cpu usage drops to still high 60%. As soon as I stop my cam the cpu usage immediately drops back to normal.

Using the cam with slack in contrast runs pretty smooth. As the zoom package from AUR just uses the upstream package from zoom.us there are no other ones for me to really test with.

Has anybody else observed this behavior? Or even found a solution for it? Thank you in advance...

This should be the most important setup facts:

OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Host: ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th
Kernel: 6.1.8-arch1-1 Resolution: 3840x2160 (LG 4K Monitor) WM: i3 CPU: Intel i7-8565U (8) @ 4.600GHz GPU: Intel WhiskeyLake-U GT2 [UHD Graphics 620] Webcam: HP HD Pro Webcam C920

@cysp74 Downgraded to 5.13.4 (711) as you suggested. Zoom is working now.

On an unrelated note, ~/.zoom/logs/zoom_stdout_stderr.log logs several calls to /usr/bin/pacmd, which isn't installed on my system since I use pipewire-pulse over pulseaudio. Zoom and audio still are able to work. Is this something I need not be concerned about?

Strange. I've been running zoom 5.13.5-1 with no issues for several days now. (Using XFCE and pipewire) I installed it pre-built from the chaotic-aur repo.

Interesting: I don't even have the directory that you're having issues with:

$ ls -l /opt/zoom/QtQuick/ ls: cannot access '/opt/zoom/QtQuick/': No such file or directory

Where is that coming from? Maybe you can tweak your build somehow so that it doesn't build that?

According to what I see, that library resides here: /opt/zoom/Qt/qml/QtQuick/Controls.2/libqtquickcontrols2plugin.so
