Zoom works on Kubuntu 20.04 over here. Should be the same on plain vanilla
Ubuntu as well.

Did you install Zoom this way?

1. Download the Zoom deb-package.
2. As root, run dpkg -i zoom_package.deb.3. Still as root run apt install
-f. Some packages should be installed at this step.

Try out Zoom now.
Works?
