Tested 6.2.0-1. Sharing works for me, but it still crashes after stopping. The workaround for me is still downgrading pipewire and libpipewire to 1.0.7 before meetings.

@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.

zoom /opt/zoom/platforminputcontexts/libfcitxplatforminputcontextplugin.so
zoom /opt/zoom/platforminputcontexts/libibusplatforminputcontextplugin.so

Zoom now has both IBus and Fcitx input method modules, so ibus is not necessary, users can use fcitx/fcitx5 as the input method (available in actual measurement). So you can remove ibus from a strong dependency, or move it to an optional dependency, and add fcitx and fcitx5 as optional dependencies at the same time.

@bigcajun826 Regarding the comments: Both (Pulseaudio and SSO login) still seem relevant to me. Is there a specific reason why you think otherwise?

@mir Do you happen to use the "blur background" feature? If so, try turning that off and see if your camera works again. For me, it seems to be hit-or-miss since the 5.10.x versions of Zoom. Sometimes I can use the blur background feature, sometimes it exhibits symptoms similar to you (black screen, frozen image)

After updating (pacman -Syu and updating zoom), my webcam stopped working in zoom. The webcam works fine for other applications, zoom detects it (but then shows a black picture) and picks up the microphone of the webcam. It is a Logitech, Inc. HD Pro Webcam C920.

Last good version is 5.9.6-1, first bad 5.10.0-1.

UPDATE: Found that it works when I turn the background feature off.

BTW, does it still make sense to pin the two comments from 2020?

Hi everybody, I decided to try Wayland on my desktop with NVidia GPU, but Zoom is crashing:

Has anybody else encountered a similar problem? I have tried --no-sandbox, but with the same crash.

Does anybody know if the Linux version is also affected?

For anyone having the same virtual background not working problem, try opening zoom client before clicking on the join room. I found out that this way the virtual backgrounds work and if I join the link directly the camera doesn't work with virtual backgrounds.

-> Flagged Out Of Date AUR Packages: zoom

dieelt commented on 2022-04-25 13:48 (UTC)

Crashes for me using Nvidia and Wayland. Adding --no-sandbox fixes the issue. Maybe this can help someone.

edh commented on 2022-04-25 10:17 (UTC)

@yinyangkoi To be quite frank my best guess would be that what you observe is a spurious effect. Both packages provide the exact same files after all! Please refer to the PKGBUILD to validate that this package just repackages whatever is provided upstream.
