Go to teamviewer-beta for beta/preview releases

(unless teamviewer messes it up again like with 12->13, where 12 was abandoned)

WARNING!

teamviewer 13 requires a desktop environment or login with lightdm etc, with startx it won't work, the staff of teamviewer confirmed, startx feature won't come in this year, it seems reverting back to teamviewer 12 is the only option for startx folks.

Hey, same with me, I also did not get that why you told to install the script to enable the teamviewerd service at the point of booting, as I have checked someone in the above comments has mentioned changing the command to "enable", to stay consistent with the associated message or you can get refer from https://oniton.com/ also.

Hello, I don't understand why you recommend in the install script to enable the teamviewerd service at boot when it just has to be running for teamviewer to work. That's not really a problem as it's just a recommendation, but I think you should change the command to "sudo systemctl start teamviewerd.service" instead of "enable", to stay consistent with the associated message.

Please remove the conflicts with teamviewer-beta, that package should be the one conflicting with this one.

+1 to xuanwo's comment, I don't have NetworkManager installed so I can't start the teamviewerd service at all without editing it

requiring lightdm was bad enough, hopefully we don't need to start installing NetworkMangler too!

You should reset the pkgrel to 1 with the next pkgver bump

13.2.26559 is first nonpreview version

teamviewerd's service will introduce NetworkManager-wait-online.service which results in systemd tried to start NetworkManager and netctl users had network issues after that.

In order to solve this problem, we should:

Firstly, mask network related service

systemctk mask NetworkManager-wait-online.service
systemctk mask NetworkManager-dispatcher.service
systemctk mask NetworkManager.service

Then edit the teamviewerd.service: systemctl edit teamviewerd.service

[Unit]
After=network.target network-online.target dbus.service
Wants=network-online.target

I have found I require lib32-freetype2 archive package to start teamviewer on boot even after enabling teamviewd service using systemctl. The steps taken to get this to work on boot are those proposed by Telis80s answer. Although in the same thread it is suggested this is not necessary yet I have not found another working solution without these 32bit libs.

systemctl status teamviewerd.service

oct 15 09:17:58 revopc systemd[1]: teamviewerd.service: Can't open PID file /var/run/teamviewerd.pid (yet?) after start: No such file or directory

What can I do about this error ??
