Article summary

Issue Description

When launching your TeamViewer application, you'll see a notification indicating that Wayland has been detected, as shown in the image below.

Troubleshooting Procedure

The issue is caused because the computer is running Wayland, which doesn't allow for any screen recording and elevated GUI apps, for security purposes, and NavVis support will not be able to access remotely to your PC.

To get access you must disable it, to make Teamviewer work.

To do that :

sudo nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf

then uncomment (remove #) the following line :

#WaylandEnable=false

This Ctrl + X, Y and Enter to exit the editor

Reboot and you'll be able to get Teamviewer to work.
