I have fought with trying to install Teamviewer for a few hours now. I've followed the instructions from their website, but there always ends up being some road block.

• In the case of installing Teamviewer 13, after installation, it doesn't open.


• In the case of installing Teamviewer 12, it opens and loads up, however it complains about how it can't connect to the teamviewer servers, and that I need to enter proxy information. I don't even use a proxy!

I don't really need teamviewer, but it would be very helpful to manage my web server remotely. If I could get it to work that would be fantastic! Thank you in advance!

Here is the output of systemctl status teamviewerd.service

The nightmare continues...
I installed the right video drivers, to install Teamviewer on the server side. However, it would open up, but there would be no GUI, just border. So, I went to the computer where TV was working, to compare logs. But, it did the exact same thing the server was doing. So, I ran the logs on both of them, to see what was going on. But, I don't quite understand what it's trying to tell me. NOTE: They still both have the FrameBuffer issue, even after properly installing drivers. Here is what I came up with:

• Xlib: extension "NV-GLX" missing on display ":10.0" (This is on both machines.)


• QSGContext::initialize: depth buffer support missing, expect rendering errors
QSGContext::initialize: stencil buffer support missing, expect rendering errors
[xcb] Too much data requested from _XRead
[xcb] This is most likely caused by a broken X extension library
[xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
TeamViewer: ../../src/xcb_io.c:736: _XRead: Assertion '!xcb_xlib_too_much_data_requested' failed.' (This is also on both machines.)

EDIT: I have just realized that I don't need to install teamviewer on the server side, because I can just used Remmina and Xrdp. But I still don't have teamviewer on the non-server side working at the moment.
