Install TeamViewer 9 in Ubuntu 14.04 64bit

TeamViewer is a Remote control application that allows you to take control of any computer or Mac over the internet within seconds. You can also use TeamViewer for online meetings and collaboration.

TeamViewer installation for Ubuntu, Debian comes in 2 packages; a 32-Bit / 64-Bit Multiarch and 64-Bit without Multiarch.

As noted in TeamViewer help page on Multiarch support:

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.

Note: When you run the command “sudo dpkg -i teamviewer_linux.deb“, you will get a dependency error “teamviewer depends on libxtst6“. That is fine, all you need to do next is run the install command with -f switch to fix the dependency

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

sudo apt-get update

wget http://www.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_linux.deb

sudo dpkg -i teamviewer_linux.deb
