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

r7v commented on 2022-06-07 14:49 (UTC)

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

32-bit libraries are not a requirement, see the package teamviewer-beta.

In my opinion you should keep it at v12 as long as the Linux version is marked as a preview.

Elrondo46: edit button exists, and never forget to state architecture. Added for loop to deal with the differences between source files

Due to recent issues and lack of updates on 12.x for linux (windows still gets them) I have bumped it to 13.1.x, and since armv7h is just released only partially i included -host version for it - it will be replaced by full teamviewer as soon as it's available.

@annoyingduck Same issue here in Awesomewm, i3, elementary too.

If I try to close the main window it is just minimized and also no systray icon & the close to tray option in advanced is not functional.

TV13 FYI:

@cereberus: Pacman will not remove configurations that the application itself creates (for example "dotfiles" in the home folder).

Teamviewer v. 12 wouldn't start on my Arch (lightdm and openbox). "Launching TeamViewer GUI ..." appeared in terminal but nothing happened (no window was opened).

Then I installed the beta version (i.e., v. 13; https://community.teamviewer.com/t5/Linux/teamviewer-12-for-linux-antergos-no-opening/m-p/23711#M1090 -- not concerning Arch per se, but it inspired me to give v. 13 a try):

yaourt -S --force teamviewer-beta (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teamviewer-beta/)

I used --force to overwrite teamviewer files as simple pacman -R teamviewer didn't remove these files, I don't know why.

Afterwards I enabled and started teamviewerd (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=154171) with these two commands:

systemctl enable teamviewerd

systemctl start teamviewerd

Now verything works like a charm (maybe except from displaying password but it's a minor issue: https://imgur.com/a/cKS8p).

On one of my machines I had a small amount of updates. These are all of the packages that got updated, so it's one of these packages that breaks the tray icon in Teamviewer12: git, lib32-fontconfig, lib32-glib2, libwacom, lightdm, lightdm-gtk-greeter, python2-dateutil, tzdata, vala.

Again here I'm running XFCE. Result is the exact same on another one of my machines running Cinnamon. Before I mess with downgrading individual packages, I figured I'd share here to get some advice first on where to start. I gotta say, this open window over the tray icon is very annoying!
