I recently put the Umbutu OS on my lenovo laptop and now my Virtual Bacground wont work, also All I get when Zooming is Black screen and no one can see me.. Is it Zoom or my operation system? Do I need to download a new Zoom app?  Or what can I do to fix this?

If your virtual background is not showing up when you start a meeting, do the following: Go to Zoom.Us and sign in to your account. Go to Settings on the left. Under In Meeting (Advanced) turn Virtual Background on.
