I have the free version of Zoom on my Ubuntu machine. My Ubuntu install details:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
Release: 22.04
 

When I go to share my screen with another participant the participant is unable to see my screen they tell me they see black. Then I did some research and saw this post https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/202082128-Troubleshooting-black-screen-during-screen-shari...

 

When I follow this section:

Configure xcompmgr

After installing, open the terminal and run this command:

xcompmgr -c -l0 -t0 -r0 -o.00

 

I get this message:

Another composite manager is already running (0x800016)

Please help. Thank you.
