[X2Go-User] Zoom Desktop Client will not start over X2Go

[Neal Becker]

A different answer perhaps, do you need to run zoom client?  They have
a web app that runs on browser.

I have submitted the issue to Zoom but so far nothing happening with it.  Honestly, its an edge case and probably not something most people would run into.  Right now I am doing the same as what you suggested with the fullscreen app and sharing the whole X2go window on my laptop.  It works but isn't ideal.

As I mentioned to Uli I will try published application mode and see if that works for me.  The web client doesn't work for hosting a meeting as far as I can tell, it just tries to launch the desktop app.  I know I can join a meeting with just the webclient, but I don't believe I can share a screen with it.  I'll look more into it though and see.
