Arch Linux User Repository

As mentioned in @seyn6gk's comment

Without changing anything, since teamviewer 13 a desktop environment/login with display manager like lightdm/sddm/gdm is required.

startx users can follow workaround mentioned in @r7v s comment

Workaround for startx

Create drop-in /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service.d/getty@tty1.service-drop-in.conf with

[Service]
Environment=XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11

@alex-eri: Have never used strace, does this mean you put teamviewerd in '/usr/bin'? execve("/usr/bin/teamviewerd", ["teamviewerd"], [/* 49 vars */]) = 0

seems needs symlinks strace teamviewerd execve("/usr/bin/teamviewerd", ["teamviewerd"], [/* 49 vars */]) = 0 brk(0) = 0xa394000 mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb7750000 readlink("/proc/self/exe", "/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/teamview"..., 4096) = 35 access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/i686/sse2/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/i686/sse2", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/i686/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/i686", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/sse2/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/sse2", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/tls", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/i686/sse2/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/i686/sse2", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/i686/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/i686", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/sse2/libpthread.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/../lib/sse2", 0xbfbc4240) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

@fuxter: I always leave upx disabled, all my roots are lzo btrfs.

@bawrak @Alucryd i just repackaged teamviewer without automatic `upx' and now it runs. i was getting core dumps before. weird.

@webmonarch: That's weird cause the command I (totally mis)used was setting the executable bit on everything. I've fixed that now though, only what needs to be executable is. Can you try rev 7?

i had some permission issues on my machine. Fixed them with chmod +x'ing the following: /opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/teamviewerd /opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/script/teamviewer /opt/teamviewer8/tv_bin/wine/bin/wine

@LookTJ: I wouldn't say one is better than the other, this package is bound to disappear anyway once teamviewer 8 is out of beta, unless there is a beta for the 9th version by that time. If that becomes a regular thing, I'll have its name changed to teamviewer-beta.

a better source is the tar they provide. http://www.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_linux.tar.gz

Would a better name be teamviewer-beta?

Thanks. I Compared your log to mine and the first line that I don't have is: fixme:winhttp:WinHttpDetectAutoProxyConfigUrl discovery via DHCP not supported Maybe it is network related? I will give the teamviewerforums a try.
