I have installed Ubuntu 22.04. It is not an official release yet, but will be in a month.
I tried to run MS Teams on Ubuntu 22.04, and it crashes. Maybe you should take a look as soon many people will be upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04.
MS Teams crashes in Ubuntu 22.04
Try
this fixed it for merm -r ~/.config/Microsoft/Microsoft\ Teams/
Does anyone else have the same problem in your organization?
Have you tried to see if it can be reproduced in Teams web client?
If there is no issue in Teams web client, we recommend you try to uninstall Teams client and reinstall it manually by following these steps:
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/ms-teams stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/teams.list'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install teams
It's a glibc compatibility issue.
Ubuntu 22.04 uses a newer version of this core library, that the current .deb version of the teams client does not like.
Hopefully we will see a new release that fixes this (and generally brings the Linux client closer to the Mac and Windows versions feature set, performance, stability etc) soon.
Thanks for your information! I will also check it in our environment to see if it could be reproduced.
Always use the snap to install and do not download the .deb

Thank you for reporting this issue. As already mentioned in the posts here, the problem is related to glibc 2.34 not being compatible with our implementation. While we look into the issue, we suggest you to use teams from the snapstore. You can install and run it this way:
snap install teams
snap run teams
For a lot of people, snaps are may solve this particular issue, but introduce a ton of other issues (drag/drop not working,copy/paste not working, inability to reach needed parts of the filesystem for attaching files etc).
Until a new deb release fixes the glibc issue og snaps are fixed on a very foundational level, safest bet is probably running teams in a browser like Chrome. Not ideal by any means, but it works.
while snap runs antithetical to the ethos linux carries of self-determination, in this case the
snap install/run teams
will fix the issues early-adopting 22.04 creates for those of us who run linux, and also work for corporations.
This is mostly related to teh fact that Teams may be using an old and outdated version of electron. Please use newer versions of electron which are compatible with newer glibc versions.
I can confirm this, dmesg shows:
[lun apr 18 12:30:11 2022] traps: Chrome_IOThread[35475] trap invalid opcode ip:56409df76774 sp:7f2b07ffd490 error:0 in teams[56409b97b000+5fc7000]
This was fixed, a new version of teams was released, v-1.5
Still crash hard for me - I downloaded the latest version (thought so) teams_1.5.00.10453_amd64.deb
As of today, I am on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS which I just installed in a VirtualBox. After installing Teams Client from the official repo, it hard crashes on first launch, when there was no config or anything, since fresh install.
Falling back to webclient :(
