Teamviewer on Debian Wheezy not autostarting before logging in

[Batista]

Hey Guys

Pls bear with me,New Linux user.

I have an old pc
AMD Athlone x2-5000 AM2
120g HDD
1 Gig ram
XFX Nvidia 9800gt (512 mb or 1 gig cant remember)

OS : Debian (Wheezy) AMD64 - it supports my card which is yet to be installed.

I loaded up the OS and proceeded to install TView.Everything went well and I installed it after trial and error using the terminal and I also logged in as root while doing it because the normal user acc doesnt have those permissions.

Ok so teamviewer starts and I can connect, I have enabled the autostart option many times to no avail.Teamviewer will not start unless you type your password in to LOGIN to Linux.

Previously with Debian Stretch this worked wonderfully, now it doesnt work at all.

I have even tried to enable the Teamviewer script to be launched on startup but then I got an error that says its already included in startup, but its not starting when im at the login prompt, only after I login then it starts.

Any takers?

Also Debian Stretch is about 10 tims faster on my pc than Debian Wheezy - the only reason I downgraded was because of the card support as mentioned here :

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver

If you have one you can try,

cd /opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script
sudo cp teamviewerd.sysv /etc/init.d/
sudo update-rc.d teamviewerd.sysv defaults

sudo service teamviewerd.sysv start (to start it without rebooting)

You can ssh into it and remotely start teamviewer as well

SSH is hard if your internet at home is dynamic IP. Team viewer overcomes some of those problems, it's why I use it over SSH.

Dyndns service, telkom isp even offers this as a free service.

What is the issue with card support?
