+  How to get the zoom video conferencing tool to work on gentoo
+---
+
+The zoom video conderencing tool works on gentoo, but since it is not integrated in a desktop environment on my machine (I am running an i3 window manager) I cannot authenticate on the google corporate domain where I work. Here is how to work
+around that.
+
+## Running the client
+
+{{< highlight yaml >}}
+./ZoomLauncher
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+## Working around the "zoommtg address not understood" error
+
+When you try to authenticate you will have your web browser pop up with a link it cannot interpret. You need to get the `zoommtg://.*` thing and run it in another ZoomLauncher (do not close the zoom process that spawned this authentication link
+or the authentication will fail :
+{{< highlight yaml >}}
+./ZoomLauncher 'zoommtg://zoom.us/google?code=XXXXXXXX'
+{{< /highlight >}}
