Teamviewer 12 and Ubuntu 22.04

Hello


I tried to install Teamviewer 12 on multiple Ubuntu 22.04 machines.

The installation runs smoothly, but onnce I start the TeamViewer client I always get the message: 'Not ready. Check your connection'.

The connection is fine (no proxy, no firewall), but on all Ubuntu 22 systems I get the same error, even using a fresh Ubuntu installation.

Thanks for your support.

    I answer myself.

    Teamviewer 12 doesn't support Wayland.

    After disabling Wayland TV12 is finally able to connect to TV servers.


    To disable Wayland on ubuntu 22.04:

    • Edit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf as root with with favorite editor, for instance
    sudo gedit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
    
    • uncomment the following line:
    WaylandEnable=false
    
    • Save the file and close the editor
    • restart gdm3 service:
    sudo systemctl restart gdm3
    


  • Thanks. This helped me get TV 12 working on Ubuntu 22.04
