Wayland on Gnome NOT supported? #67

Closed kalabalik closed 3 years ago

kalabalik commented 3 years ago

Dears,

I am on Ubuntu 20.10 with Wayland and Gnome 3.38.1. Starting today, when I try to share my screen, I get the following message: Can not start share, we only support Wayland on GNOME with Ubuntu 17 and above, ... If your OS in not on the list, please use x11 instead. Since this should not happen on my machine, I checked the logs which say: Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

If I do echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE in the terminal, I get "wayland".

Here is the complete log file: zoom_stdout_stderr.log

What do I do?

Switch to Xorg from Wayland worked for me

perhaps its a simple export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland

Hi

Apparently this problem is more complicated, this issue #22 follow the discussion of the state of Wayland with this snap.

has something to do with /etc/os-release return ubuntu-core so the snap does not recognize it as a supported OS for wayland

please see my last comment on #22 there is a version that might perhaps fix this issue in the edge channel currently... the other issue has instructions how to switch to it (and back after testing)

The popup message issue is clearly fixed snap revision 146 and above (in the edge channel at the moment) further discussion and testing around this issue should take place in #22 now, i'm closing this one
