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.

if zoom is not starting, check if the git downloaded folder zoom is in the path /home/<whatever>/zoom, after install delete it or move it to another path like Downloads

same as @hamidzr. Lots of seg faults with 5.0.399860.0429-1. Sometimes it takes me 10 attempts before I can get it to work.

@hamidzr: Me too. Seem to run fine for a while and then just crashes. Not sure that there is anything specific that I do other than listen/look/talk...

on version (5.0.399860.0429-1) I get a segfault when running zoom. anyone else running into this? https://zoom.us/client/5.0.398100.0427/zoom_x86_64.tar.xz works

I'm not sure if this is related to some of the recent discussions about pulseaudio, ALSA, and apulse, but I've noticed on two of my computers that any notification sounds happening from any other app cause a Zoom meeting's audio to temporarily cut out for about 3 seconds, and then playback quickly as Zoom tries to catch up. I'm on Manjaro Gnome (not sure about other DEs).

This happens every time I receive a message in Slack, for example. It also happens if I open a webpage that has any sort of autoplaying content. Could it be that these are because of recent changes in this package?

For reference, I did not have this issue until relatively recently.

I am able to use this package without pulseaudio-alsa installed. Not sure if it's just no longer needed or should be optional.

On Zoom 3.5.392530.0421 + Gnome 3.36.1 on X11, trying to manage breakout rooms is very buggy: After creating the rooms moving participants between rooms and broadcasting messages is done through small popup windows - however those windows disappear immediately after they appear and cannot be used. I wonder if this is an Arch, Gnome or X11 specific problem or a generic Linux client problem.

SSO login failing problem present in 3.5.385850.0413 too (if i try to log in i just got back a long random char list in a new window and thats all. The "embeddedBrowserForSSOLogin=false" workaround is working.

@edh and other responders, just tested, after 4 hour of failing to get effectv working through a v4l-compat layer with zoom, I decided to either lookup my previous attempt to port it to v4l2, or re-port it entirely with my recent improved understanding of automation and regex.

Zoom without the funky effect worked after testing, and I feel a little more secure using it.

Little bit tipsy, sorry, had to retype the first part of this.

p.s

Whats up with these crypto related build system forks? Downloading 1-3gb to compile something that could be in the 1-2kb range, source and binary!
