@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.

@tsujigir_nin - I am experiencing the same issues. It doesn't appear to happen if I join with my mic plugged in, but it will happen if I disconnect my mic during the call or join without a mic. The only remedy I found is to reboot. Exiting zoom and restarting it yields the same unending cascade of notifications

Has anyone had issues with cascading/unstoppable 'Zoom cannot detect your [e.g.] microphone' messages on the 01/25 release? These cascading notifications prevented clicking any zoom buttons and continued after using keyboard shortcuts to exit the meeting. For me they occurred if I enter a meeting with the mic not set up (e.g. I forgot to plug it in). Zoom works as normal provided my mic is connected and configured in my system prior to joining a call. Weirdly, I don't get any notifications if I disconnect the mic during a zoom call.

Hi, does anyone know if Zoom unofficially supports any HID devices on Linux, for mute/unmute on a Jabra 410 speakerphone to mute/unmute in Zoom? Support says HID is only supported for macOS and Windows. I sent them a support request just now, asking here because not sure their support will actually know if there is anything under the hood.

Update: I opened a thread here too on this > https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/HID-Support-for-Linux/td-p/32775

@AchmadFathoni These dependencies are not required because they are pre-packaged with zoom. Since no source code is available for zoom, this is a plain re-packaging of the original zoom package. The package does not link against the system Qt but instead provides its own versions of these libraries.

AchmadFathoni commented on 2022-01-01 17:34 (UTC)

Looking at zoom binary dynamic link, it seems that zoom needs qt5-3d and qt5-gamepad as dependency.

zeroconf commented on 2021-12-13 21:13 (UTC)

Then we need just ignore that, as suggested here.

edh commented on 2021-12-13 20:20 (UTC)

@zeroconf There is no such thing as rebuilding zoom. This is a binary package with no source code provided whatsoever. This in itself is a bad situation but unfortunately the one we are in. Furthermore, most dependencies are bundled within the package itself since zoom requires old and outdated versions of many libraries.

Please investigate and think about the output of the commands you are posting a bit more before coming up with conclusions.

After updating system, rebuilding package:

yay --cleanmenu --rebuild -Syu zoom

... rebooting system, checkrebuild command claims that package zoom still needs to be rebuilt, although it is working properly. I hope this can be fixed. Below is the verbosed output of missing libraries locations.

$ checkrebuild -v

Got Screen Sharing to work on Gnome+Wayland (Manjaro) using the solution posted by @gj545rndmu

Here is what you have to do in detail:

  1. ALT + F2 to open Gnome Command Prompt
  2. Enter lg to open Looking Glass
  3. In the new Command Prompt that opens then, set global.context.unsafe_mode = true

Screen Sharing should work now.

Note: Much to everyone's surprise, enabling the unsafe_mode is considered unsafe. So take care and be sure to set it to false again when you don't need it anymore.
