@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.

Screen share works now with wayland and pipewire, but only the first time. The second time it is just black. I can see the following lines after closing the first screen share.

QCoreApplication::postEvent: Unexpected null receiver

@HighValueWarrior Put screenshot on forum (even for flatpak ver). Use web interface of Zoom if you don't need any feature of app. Avoid nonfree app if possible.

Gray bars at bottom of video screen. This app is such a shitshow. No reflection on you edh. Thank you for you for maintaining. Going back to the flatpak. (which has its own issues)

@oech3 thanks installing zoom-system-qt and deleting the configs before running it worked.

Would you use prepare(){mv opt usr "${pkgdir}"} at next release for small or slow BUILDDIR ?

BTW, I had some issues with screensharing and zoom meetings. If you full screen the zoom app in GNOME and cancel it, you will lose access to the zoom workspace and will have to rejoin the meeting for the videos.

The workaround - don't fullscreen zoom and it works perfectly fine for both screen sharing and recovering from a share.

@TheHighGroundWin google login state is persisted both of zoom{,-system-qt} without opt deps. Try cleaning ~/.zoom and ~/.config/zoom*.conf before running.

TheHighGroundWin commented on 2025-04-08 14:16 (UTC)

Has anyone gotten stay logged in to persist and work?

Is it just broken or are there any packages to install?

I can't seem to find anything about it online.

@sbrl Please alert the zoom team.

sbrl commented on 2025-03-31 12:55 (UTC)

Potential security issue: the following files this package builds are marked as executable on install when they probably shouldn't be:

opt/zoom/ring.pcm
opt/zoom/ringtone/ring.pcm
opt/zoom/sip/dtmf_dial.wav
opt/zoom/timezones/ko/timezones.txt
