@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.

To anyone who might have issue running Zoom with PipeWire, I've updated ArchWiki for a temporarily solution, please check out at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings

@mcw yes I'm having the same issue, came here hoping for solutions.

Also on GNOME under Xorg. I don't recall this being a problem until recently, and downgrading mutter and gnome-shell to 44.3 resolved the issue for now.

Downgrading gnome-shell alone didn't do it, so seems to be mutter. I see mutter and gnome-shell 44.5 have recently hit [extra], perhaps we can cross our fingers that they will resolve the regression, otherwise I'd probably be reporting it as a regression to mutter.

Does anyone else have an issue with Zoom getting stuck in a minimized state?

When I navigate to a different screen the client minimizes itself and follows me around -- which it always has, and is cool. But recently it became impossible to exit the minimized client to see the video.

I'm running Gnome on X-Windows, if that matters (a lot of my software doesn't run under Wayland).

The relevant log message:

Sep 14 16:36:35 lucid gnome-shell[4350]: Window manager warning: Invalid WM_TRANSIENT_FOR window 0x3400008 specified for 0x3400184.

TIA.

EditL: FWIW, xprop shows that the window is 0x3400008, Don't know where 0x3400184 is coming from.

Can confirm that changing pkgver to 15.5.7 and subversion to 6521 does build correctly. Here's my updated PKGBUILD:

I recently ran into a problem where the package included the wrong versions of libraries and as a result zoom would not run.

I think the fix is to clean the package directory before rebuilding the package.

Latest upstream version 5.15.7 subversion 6521 seems to build and load as does the current PKGBUILD for 5.15.5 subversion 5603..... i.e. I think it is "a.o.k." to upgrade these parameters in the PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO files.

I have two Arch computers -- sidebar works on one (Nvidia graphics), and crashes on the other (Intel graphics). I'm not sure if the Nvidia/Intel is the difference, or if there is something else different between the machines.

@tomtrebicky -- your workaround for the sidebar crashing worked for me -- thanks for sharing!

A workaround for the "sidebar" crashing issue found here https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/Debian-12-zoom-crashes-just-after-login/m-p/126297

I found a workaround for this issue start zoom with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb, and toggle off sidebar. after that you can run zoom with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland and it will not crash untill you toggle the sidebar back 😃

@edh thanks for the suggestion -- I checked and already have pipewire-alsa installed.
