I've enjoyed and benefitted from this discussion, and I thank one and all. I've installed the .deb file on my bewowulf 3 deskotop. It seems like it would work. I'll give it try next time ther is a zoom meeting. Incidenttally is there a public site that one can use to test zoom? I gave up trying to install zoom in on an old ASCII machine because all the dependencies. I understand the security advantages of using zoom on a laptop not much used for anything else. I suppose the sercurity conern is files being accessible to intruders. Someone made the interesting suggestion of settin up a new account just for zoom. What is wrong with this? Could zoom be used to access files not owned by user? I should mention the the problem running zoom on my laptop (Thknkpad X250). After a short shile (a few minutes) I loose outgoing sound. I have video and sound in, but sound out out stops. I do nothing to the machine during the sesison. This happens each time I run zoom. Anyone have any ideas? -- Haines Brown _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
