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.

Besides the big uncontrolled size, it breaks for me, using fluxbox as WM and LXQt as DE. Only way to prevent breakages and avoiding the huse size is reverting to prior version, which was still 5.0, while latest version breaking is 5.1..

I have issues controlling Breakout Rooms - all popups disappear immediately ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHrfPDILIgc ). This is not a new issue. I am using Gnome. Can someone else confirm it is a linux/arch/gnome issue?

The interface, both the main conferencing one as well as the client with login, settings, etc. has increased in size, as if it has been scaled up for some reason. This is on Plasma.

It could be possible that in the latest update my zoom went really BIG? I mean, it is like all its interfase is zoomed in... and because that does not fit in the screen, it is barely usable

Actually the crash was partly my fault. I had switched to Xorg from Wayland and still had set QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland.

I can run it via terminal, e.g.: QT_QPA_PLATFORM="" zoom

Made a PKGBUILD for a stripped version, doesn't work. Doing something wrong with the package build. Firstly I can't get the sha512sum I made of files to verify.

Haven't worked out all the deps so you may have to ldd the binary, and pacman -Fx the missing libs to find the right deps to install. Also it riquires files from qtdesigner.

Something like this

for d in ldd zoom | awk -F' ' '{print $3}'; do PACKAGES="$PACKAGES pacman -Fx "$d" | rev | awk -F'' '{print $2}' | rev"; done; pacman -S "$PACKAGES"

If it's not too much trouble @SpineEyE or @Revelation60 I would be interested in knowing whether the zoom-system-qt version of this causes the same core dump. Neither package does for me right now, but it looks like the problem you are seeing may be in the bundled QT libraries, so you might be able to side-step it by using the substituted Arch libraries instead.

Revelation60 commented on 2020-06-17 11:27 (UTC)

It's also core dumping for me with the latest version.

No one gets a coredump? It started with the latest version.

A little nitpicky perhaps; but the provided desktop file has Icon=Zoom.png which causes the icon detection to fail. If it's switched to Icon=Zoom; the icon is correctly guessed. (XDG application does not need file extension unless the icon is a hard link. In this case it's not; the Zoom icons are unpacked to directories that allow them to be autodetected by the system.)

The patch would be a one-liner sed -i 's|Zoom\.png|Zoom|g' "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/Zoom.desktop"
