@Rhinoceros - I finally got screen sharing to work under KDE with Wayland. Looks like I'm using the same versions as you:

  • Zoom 6.2.10
  • pipewire 1.2.6

I followed the Screen share section on the Zoom wiki page:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings

The only thing I didn't need to do was set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome. I followed the other steps, and now I can choose my desktop/window to share. Prior to following the wiki I couldn't stop screen sharing without the hanging issue, which I was experiencing prior to 6.2.10.

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.

@dcelasun I'm also suffering from the narrow settings window issue, making it unusable as I can't set anything from audio tab. For now I "fixed" it by downgrading to version 6.4.6, because I'm experiencing this issue with any version from 6.4.10 upwards.

Why this package still not update to 6.4.12? Does that version has some problems?

I have a "journalctl" output completely spammed by the last version of Zoom to the tune of:

kernel: ZoomWebviewHost[10211]: segfault at 19 ip 00007f069ed9bdb4 sp 00007f0688bf7930 error 6 in libcef.so[8d9adb4,7f06984b7000+b156000] likely on CPUx (core x, socket 0)

I checked that I do have libcef.so at /opt/zoom//cef/libcef.so There is nothing visible in how Zoom continues to work smoothly that indicates that something is afoot or could be a visble symptom for the segfault.

Any clue any one ? Has anybody seen this ?

I consider login persistent issue is unrelated with system runtimes. Apart from that, I separated out heavy zoom-system-qt-cef package. zoom package can do similar things.

@TheHighGroundWin Thanks for that pointer! I believe I got it working now. For anyone having the same problem: for me it was zoom-system-qt + removing all zoom related files (e.g. ~/.zoom & everything with 'zoom' in the name in ~/.config).

@Timoyoungster I switched to using zoom-system-qt and it successfully saves login info, both after closing zoom and even after system reboot.

It's the same zoom but uses system dependencies or something.

Does anyone else have the issue that it just won't save the login info? In general I think it doesn't save any settings properly for me.

@dcelasun Mine looks fine in KDE Plasma + Wayland

Screen sharing is still broken though. I spent another hour testing various permutations, but nothing works consistently. I'll record what I did here so others don't waste their time.

  1. Any of the four different options in the GUI don't fix it.
  2. Editing ~/.config/zoomus.conf to have enableWaylandShare=true or false makes no difference.
  3. Using the web version at https://app.zoom.us/wc/home doesn't work. Haven't said that, Firefox doesn't share windows properly on my system anyway (tested at https://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/gum_test.html )

I found two things that kinda work. However in both cases, full screen sharing never works. Also, I am given have a selection of windows to share, but not all my windows are presented as options. In any case, usually after sharing a window, zoom only shares a black image. I can open the share dropdown and click the edit button, which sometimes helps. Since I can't pick all my windows, it's not reliable since I won't necessarily be able to share the window I need to.

  1. Run zoom with XDG_SESSION_TYPE=X11 zoom
  2. Alternatively run firefox with MOZ_DISABLE_WAYLAND=1 GDK_BACKEND=x11 firefox. This might be slightly more stable though in terms of showing the black image less.

Another option could be to mirror your screen onto a dummy webcam input, although I'm not running sway, so I haven't tested a modified version in Plasma.

E: the black screen might be related to this issue

Does anyone else have an extremely narrow settings window with the latest version? It looks like this with Gnome under Wayland.
