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

Why it is sourced to tvcdn.de and not directly to teamviewer.com if it is deb from Microsoft?

Change the $pkgver to 15.4.4445.

Teamviewer ver 12 was not able to connect to computers with a newer version. I tried many different ways to install a fresh version, finally finding a solution (currently ver 15.3.2682):

  • clone teamviewer repository: git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/teamviewer.git
  • to enable Multilib package repository, uncomment the following two lines in pacman configuration file /etc/pacman.conf:

#[multilib]

#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

  • cd teamviewer
  • makepkg -si
  • download older version of lib32-freetype2: curl -L -O https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/lib32-freetype2/lib32-freetype2-2.8-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
  • sudo pacman -U lib32-freetype2-2.8-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
  • add lib32-freetype2 to IgnorePkgs in /etc/pacman.conf to make it not get updated during system update
  • sudo systemctl enable gdm
  • reboot
  • restart teamviewer daemon: sudo systemctl restart teamviewerd
  • sudo systemctl enable teamviewerd to make the daemon start at every boot

@francoism90 Looks like it's the startx issue. I'll just use teamviewer12.

@txtsd It works for me when first starting the service and launching using the terminal:

$ teamviewer

txtsd commented on 2020-03-31 11:32 (UTC)

I enabled the service and rebooted, but I'm still getting this:

λ teamviewer                                                                                                                                                                                  

Init...
CheckCPU: SSE2 support: yes
Checking setup...
Launching TeamViewer ...
Launching TeamViewer GUI ...

And nothing happens.

Any idea why the launcher isn't working?

joseluisq commented on 2020-03-20 14:06 (UTC)

For newcomers, it is necessary to start the daemon process like @babaliaris said https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teamviewer/#comment-734607
