How do I kill and restart TeamViewer 10 on ubuntu from the command line?

I tried running sudo kill -HUP teamviewer* and other variants (TeamViewer.exe; which I got from the system monitor) with no luck.

I have an issue sometimes with Teamviewer hanging and it would be nice not to have to reboot my system to get TV10 working again.

kill accepts PIDs, not process command names. Try pkill, or killall:

sudo pkill TeamViewer.exe

Or:

sudo pkill -f TeamViewer.exe
