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 has been unusable for me for the past couple weeks. I have a 4 monitor setup with a 32:9 ultrawide, 2 1080p and 1 1440p.

When I launch the app, it takes longer than usual and fills all 4 monitors with a black screen. When I unfloat it I can only see a black window and a blue one eventually appears also. I cannot access any controls and the tray icon has stopped working as well. I've tried a couple of the scaling fixes but they don't seem to work. It's a bummer because zoom used to work great for me, and now I have to connect through the browser.

@ludenticus Can you elaborate a little on to why the string should be lower-case? I was of the impression that as long as the string is the same for all desktop entries than grouping works fine.

ludenticus commented on 2020-07-14 16:16 (UTC)

Zoom.desktop should use lowercase in StartupWMClass=zoom (instead of StartupWMClass=Zoom).

Recently I noticed that this app has scaling issues on my dual monitor setup. The secondary display is fine, however the primary is blown up.

Adding QT_SCALE_FACTOR=0.5 fixes it for the primary but when I drag to the secondary it's scaled tiny.

Both screens are 1920x1080 - One is the laptop and the other is a secondary display in portrait.

Is anyone else facing segfaults with the Zoom binary? Complete error log: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/DqJWQ5mzz4/. The following line repeats more than 10k times:

load glyph failed err=24 face=0x55afbb106260, glyph=9

Edit: Running with env QT_SCALE_FACTOR=0.9 /usr/bin/zoom seems to be fine. I think its a missing font with my Qt config.

joehillen commented on 2020-07-08 20:16 (UTC)

@mercutio Thank you. That's very helpful.

Alternatively, it can be fixed by setting the QT_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable rather than editing the binary file. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HiDPI#Qt_5

QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR has no effect, but QT_SCALE_FACTOR works.

I created a wrapper script in my ~/.bin that runs:

env QT_SCALE_FACTOR=0.5 /usr/bin/zoom

If anyone else has trouble with the GUI being scaled way to high (looking quite blurry on my 1080p display), you can use this fix: https://gist.github.com/mercutiodesign/a68a70d433edef1b087ace15e8175918

Based on this fix for the zoom-snap package: https://github.com/ogra1/zoom-snap/commit/6f3e8a6eec631e08e7cdbf3345ab896d7f368b6f

For a simple one off fix you can also run sudo sed -i s/T_AUTO_S/XXXXXXXX/g /opt/zoom/ZoomLauncher

5.1.418436.0628-1 is having issue with SSO on my side (running Manjaro, kernel 5.6.16-1).

Zoom client is being signed out after 30 sec when connected to a meeting.

FYI: last of 5.0 is working well

Anyone know why Zoom disables a Wacom touchscreen only in Zoom (Thinkpad X1 Yoga)? And is this something I can reactivate?

image28 commented on 2020-07-02 03:34 (UTC)

@dustmann you could use ffmpeg to capture the window then play it through a video loopback device
