@ronw Yeah, looks like Zoom has again arbitrarily added restrictions for other DEs.
I tried editing the .config/zoomus.conf file and set enableWaylandShare=true but that didn't have any effect.
I also set xwayland=false which resulted in zoom crashing when trying to screen share.
I tried setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome and it did get rid of the error message and showed the screen share window. But no option to actually share screen. Only whiteboard visible.
I upgraded to 6.1.0-1 and trying to share my screen is displaying the window that only GNOME is supported on Wayland.
I run KDE Plasma and haven't seen that for at least the last couple of versions.
fwiw, 6.1.0-1 is playing well with wayland, even without xwayland. It is a nice change of pace.
Sorry everybody, I'm currently away from my laptop for one more week but will update the package at the end of next week. For security reasons my keys are only stored on my laptop.
@lunasophia I'm sorry, I'm new to AUR. The package was already flagged out of date and I don't know if there's a way to add info to the out of date "reason".
@leonkacowicz @meithan This is what the flag out of date feature is for; commenting here only makes it harder to find legitimate discussion.
Please update to latest URL https://cdn.zoom.us/prod/6.0.10.5325/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
zoom is not allowing login with this version. Newest version is 6.0.10.
@robbystk Removing those etc. as you say, did not solve my exact same problem. Any possibility at all there was some other change to make zoom work again?
A while ago after an upgrade, zoom started exiting immediately after launch with no output or error message. Today I tried removing the src and pkg directories and rebuilding the package. Running makepkg --cleanbuild will clear the src directory before extraction which might also be sufficient. The newly built package worked after installing, so it seems that there were some old files left in the src directory that were causing problems. I'm posting here in case it helps anyone else with a similar issue.

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.confupdates:qt5-webengineinstalled, and theebeddedBrowserForSSOLoginline doesn't exist in my configzoomus.conf. SSO login works just fine (issues with Firefox containers aside).pipewire-pulse.system.audio.typedefaulted toalsafor me (or I changed it without realizing it). I probably could have installedpipewire-alsaand fixed my issues, but I setsystem.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.edh commented on 2016-08-26 11:03 (UTC) (edited on 2017-03-09 10:48 (UTC) by edh)
