Title: [SOLVED] TeamViewer MultiArch
Post by: Wirezfree on September 08, 2014, 11:18:44 AM
I'm about to embarrass my self I'm sure.!!
I probably should really know this by now.

I want to install Teamviewer on my PC & Daughters laptop,
I have installed LL 32bit on my daughters, and I'm on LL 64 bit.
((I'm trying to get her off XP, and I could remote support her when she's away.))

On the Teamviewer download page there is 64Bit with, and without MultiArch
Which do I take for LL 64 bit, both have 64 bit variant.

Thanks... David

I would take the "64-Bit without Multiarch" but I imagine they would both work.

I'm not 100% on this so please anyone else make comments too.

Use Install Additional Software, the option is there.

Yes, I did embarrass myself...  :-[
For not paying attention to what was already available.

Out of interest what is the answer.?

Thanks... Dave

Hi Scott,

Thanks, I read the link...
I think I get what the idea is, make the OS kind of application agnostic?

Thanks... Dave

Hi Dave,

I started to think it about it technically and then ..... decided to stop. The LL install-additional-software option is good enough for my curiousity, I'll save the brain cells for something else.  :)

Hello!

Valtam's suggestion of using the Install Additional Software script is best. it ensures that TeamViewer ends up with everything the Linux version needs - including WINE...

Hi,

Installed Teamviewer on my 2 LL2 Laptops,, Seems to work very well.
Just an observation.
I noticed a very quick splash screen, you may easily miss it..
It appears the Linux version is actually the Windows Version.
It appears to be run in a Wine Run Time Wrapper.
I find no obvious Wine install components after the install.

Correct, it is in a wine wrapper.
