| Get zoom to work | Get zoom to work | 2018-01-02 | 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 >}}
