INSTALL ZOOM FEDORA INSTALL

Install OBS Studio, V4L2 Loopback and XDG Desktop Portal. Preferred Method: Using OBS and Zoom’s “Share content from 2nd camera” feature However, on wayland Zoom’s screen sharing features don’t work anymore. Screen sharing works fine when you run Zoom on xorg. There are some quirks under Plasma/Wayland, and if you run with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb (see below) you can get rid of most.

As you see, there are several small components, that needs to be fulfilled in order to start using certain Linux distro.As of zoom-5.11.10 screen sharing works directly under Wayland.

INSTALL ZOOM FEDORA SOFTWARE

Still officially Manjaro is not supported in my home country to make ID-card software (only Ubuntu is in the list), luckily there is a packager, so the software is available in Manjaro (via AUR) as well. rolling release model, latest software, why Manjaro might be better choice. As I see, also Manjaro has some challenges. This Cinnamon bug is among other issues, why I started to look toward Manjaro. But at least under Linux Mint the Cinnamon has nasty and still not fixed bug - when laptop does turn off screen in idle mode, the CPU load goes 100%… The only workaround so far is prevent to turn off screen, while idle. Still it might be an option, if really other desktop environments are even worse, I mean no way to get dynamic zoom to work.Ĭinnamon is fork from GNOME3 and has also dynamic zoom with mouse, which is also configurable. moving, resizing windows also several apps. Unfortunately other XFCE features are too modest to use that desktop environment. Only Manjaro XFCE has dynamic desktop zoom with mouse built-in (didn’t find a way to configure it) - it works right away with ALT-key. Also no way to use mouse to dynamically zoom in, out.

INSTALL ZOOM FEDORA ISO

Manjaro GNOME ISO was even worse - there was an option to turn on zoom and off. There might be, that after installing Manjaro KDE, the shortcut keys will be different than on live ISO. Therefore I propose to add that feature - please allow to configure to use certain key for dynamic zoom like in Cinnamon desktop environment is.

I checked shortcut keys configuration - there was only keys and no way to use mouse scroll.

As I also mentioned, I tried any thinkable combination of keys, none worked. Also the laptop is regular Lenovo one, so no weird hardware. Using still live ISO as I haven’t decided to switch to Manjaro as there are these questions, I am posting into forum currently. I remind you, that I use live Manjaro KDE ISO, so there is no weird shortcut mess. At the same time other DE features are missing in XFCE - I guess KDE should be the most configurable among official DE releases, Manjaro exist… In GNOME was very poorly implemented similarly like in KDE - only with keyboard. Tested with Manjaro XFCE - there works desktop zoom out of the box with ALT+mouse scroll and didn’t find it is configurable via GUI. Still considering, which desktop environment (DE) is better and as KDE seems most configurable and hardware requirements are usually basically same with GNOME (maybe little different), was considering KDE as I need good DE for teaching, which means I can zoom whole desktop with apps in and out with key+mouse. Currently can use live ISO only.Īs far as I know, mouse scroll in one direction is usually defined as one key, scrolling opposite direction - another key - like in Compiz with Ezoom plugin.

Tried any thinkable combination:Įtc combinations with CTRL, SHIFT, Super, ALT + mouse scroll, none worked.
