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.

Latest version (2.0.98253.0707) I don't have keyboard input when someone shares their screen with me and gives me control. Downgrading one commit before that works. Anyone else with that?

@mbroemme Under Xmonad, all of the windows are perfectly movable, however they do not respond to any dismissal key combo I've ever heard of and never have "cancel" buttons, so I often end up shunting any number of accessory windows to another workspace until I can exit the whole program.

Is it normal that the Zoom windows have no decorations and cannot be moved at all under Fluxbox? Does anybody have the same issue than me? Other Qt5 applications work fine, however they use system libraries.

In case anyone finds it helpful, I was having issues with screensharing. Namely, when I shared my screen, participants just saw green where my window should be. First, I upgraded my kernel from 4.7.6 to the latest 4.11.2. This caused the green to instead appear black to participants. This is essentially because of wayland. I had originally set xorg as the default, but this has been reset at some point (perhaps during the kernel upgrade or perhaps earlier). Switching to Xorg makes zoom work perfectly.

Latest version, for me at least, kills the non-primary window from displaying anything. It just remains black so I'm unable to see what's being shared (or the primary speaker when no one is sharing.) I don't see anything super incriminating in the logs so I'm unsure what's causing it. Downgrading to the last available version seems to solve the problem.

@festerman Thanks for the update. I changed the pkgver back to the current release. Please be sure to remove the remaining source in your SRCDEST if necessary.

@edh: Upstream updated now, acc. to Zoom support ...

@FredBezies Their package file seams to be corrupted. I will roll back for now. Please be sure to file a bug on their website.

The v4l2loopback kernel module appears to be required for Desktop (not application window) sharing.
