@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.

tested 6.2.0-1, screen sharing still doesn't start for me.. (same as before - nothing after confirming that I want to share screen)

Just updating my previous comment, where screen sharing did not work at all (KDE/Wayland). Now with the latest 6.2.0-1 I can at least screen share, although I am limited to sharing my whole desktop, and Zoom freezes when I stop screen sharing. Does the pipewire downgrade also fix being able to share individual windows?

(Again, @edh I think you should comment and pin it for future readers.)

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.

When I select "Use system desktop capture" and hit "Share", nothing happens. I find this entry in zoom logs:

ListModel2<T, Key>::getItemIndex(): key not exists!

Rhinoceros commented on 2024-08-29 12:29 (UTC)

Hmmm, weird. No idea what the difference could be then. I have 3 computers running Arch with Wayland/KDE, and for all of them Zoom fails silently after I select something in the first dialogue. Frustrating!

VanClaussen commented on 2024-08-29 12:18 (UTC)

Yes, the dialog pops up as described by rakatan and if I confirm it, it will share all screens no matter what is selected. Ending the share does freeze the application, while the call remains active. I have to kill zoom and reopen afterwards.

Rhinoceros commented on 2024-08-29 11:49 (UTC)

Hm, but @VanClaussen, IIUC do you have screen sharing working somewhat, although you can't select exactly what to share, and it crashes? If so, that seems to be different to @rakatan and me, who can't even get past the first dialogue.

I ended up switching to i3 because it was not reliable on wayland. Hopefully that changes soon.

VanClaussen commented on 2024-08-29 10:49 (UTC)

I'm on KDE with Wayland as well. I hope this will get fixed soon.

rakatan commented on 2024-08-29 10:11 (UTC)

@Rhinoceros I'm on wayland too, using sway.
