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.

I just updated the PKGBUILD manually for 6.1.5 and can confirm that screen sharing works again without the symlink mentioned below. However, Zoom locks up when stopping the screen sharing. :-/

6.1.5 is out.

What they fixed: screen sharing

What they didn't fix: app crashing after the screen sharing is over with Pipewire v1.2.0

wget https://cdn.zoom.us/prod/6.1.5.871/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz && sudo pacman -U zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Yes I know. Sorry for asking. Was just a little frustrated with the delay.

@conan-cimmerian The mist up-to-date version available on their website as of now is the version currently provided by the package. Please direct your inquiry to the zoom support people.

They promised to have the 6.1.15 version that is supposed to fix screensharing up by yesterday. Still not here.

Yeah it doesn't for me either. I'm not entirely sure what's different about Smoerrebroed's setup.

It should avoid the crash of the app when you end screen sharing. But tbh. downgrading pipewire is pita.

I'm using GNOME, but you can check the logs at ~/.zoom/logs/zoom_stdout_stderr.log to see if there are other errors in there.

Sadly not, as my colleague pointed out to me yesterday. :(

Does this resolve the issue where you can't share individual windows, only the entire screen?

Sadly not, as my colleague pointed out to me yesterday. :(

Smoerrebroed commented on 2024-07-08 17:57 (UTC)

It should by all means. Happy sharing!
