Install TeamViewer 10  in Linux Debian, Mint, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and debian derivative system

TeamViewer 10 includes significant performance optimizations. CPU usage optimizations for multi-core processors, HD voice transmission quality, and faster login and load times for the Management Console are just a few examples.

TeamViewer is a proprietary computer software package for remote control, desktop sharing, online meetings, web conferencing and file transfer between computers. Versions are available for the Microsoft Windows, OS X, Desktop Linux, iOS, Android Linux, Windows RT and Windows Phone operating systems. It is also possible to access a machine running TeamViewer with a web browser. While the main focus of the application is remote control of computers, collaboration and presentation features are included.

For more information on the major TeamViewer Changes in the upcoming version 10 please consult this page.

To Install TeamViewer 10  in Linux Debian, Mint, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and debian derivative system, open a new Terminal window and bash (get it?) in the following commands:

For 32-bit DEB-systems you need the teamviewer_linux.deb package.
For 64-bit DEB-systems without Multiarch you need the teamviewer_linux_x64.deb package. Please see note on Multiarch below.
For installing TeamViewer, we recommend using the graphical installer.
If you prefer to use the command line or if there is no graphical installer available you can use either one of these commands as an administrator:

For the 32-bit package:

dpkg -i teamviewer_linux.deb

For the 64-bit package:

dpkg -i teamviewer_linux_x64.deb

In case “dpkg” indicates missing dependencies, complete the installation by executing the following command:

apt-get install -f

Notes to Multiarch:
On newer 64-bit DEB-systems with Multiarch-support (Debian 7) teamviewer_linux_x64.deb cannot be installed because the package ia32-libs is not available anymore on these systems. In this case you can use teamviewer_linux.deb instead.

In case you get the error “wrong architecture i386” you have to execute the following command lines as an administrator:

dpkg --add-architecture i386

apt-get update
