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.

@rogala you can downgrade by downloading the pacman package from zoom's website at https://zoom.us/support/download. The UI only supports downloading the latest version but you can get any version by grabbing a version number from https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/205759689-New-updates-for-Linux and formatting the URL like so:

https://zoom.us/client/x.y.zzzz.zzzz/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

For the previous release that would be https://zoom.us/client/5.5.7938.0228/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

From there you can install by doing # pacman -U zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

5.9.16-1-MANJARO, Zoom 5.5.4 (7938-0228).

Screen sharing after the latest Zoom update is majorly affected. The upload frame-rate is stuck precisely at 1 fps, and does not increase regardless of internet speed or screen resolution. I would appreciate any ideas that people might have how to solve it. Perhaps there's a way to downgrade Zoom?

@hv15 thanks for this. Here is hoping Zoom keeps maintaining the alsa backend.

On Manjaro Linux with KDE Plasma 5.20.5, when trying to login using gmail or trying to join meetings by link, it fails because it cannot find application handler for Zoom:

Could not find any application or handler for zoommtg://us02web.zoom.us/join? 
action=join&confno=REMOVED_BY_ME…REMOVED_BY_ME&browser=chrome&t=REMOVED_BY_ME

Edit: Fixed by replacing ~/.local/share/applications/Zoom.desktop with /usr/share/applications/Zoom.desktop

I had problems with microphone being jittery, to a degree that it was hardly usable. It might have been related to pipewire and/or pipewire-pulse with PulseEffects enabled. Bypassing PulseEffects didn't work, though.

What helped me was installing pipewire-alsa and setting system.audio.type=alsa in ~/.config/zoomus.conf, as hv15 suggested. Now the mic is usable again :)

Using "GNOME on Xorg" I suddenly found out that I can't share screen (neither full desktop nor specific window, in both cases only the wallpaper was seen zooming in and out or with glitching window top bar). Switching to "GNOME" (Wayland) solved this.

Hi all, I just rebooted my machine after updating and zoom is majorly glitching out. Specifically clicking on buttons in the GUI doesn't update the window unless I click on the profile or resize the window. I'm using i3 so perhaps that's related. I suspect it's due to updates in either the kernel or other dependencies, as downgrading zoom to the original version does nothing. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

@kouros17

I updated the checksum with the release and can validate that it still corresponds to the package that is distributed at https://zoom.us/download . Please check your network configuration!

I cant build 5.5.2-1 because

==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

My issue right now is ever since 5.5.0-1 build when I request to control a shared session, my session instantly locks up audio cuts out and the session closes. Seems the two updates after have not addressed. Any advice from anyone else that has ran into this? What I have done in the meantime is downgrade back to 5.4 and all is good again.
