I installed teamviewer as a debian package ( 32 bit version ) without problems, but the installed prog doesn t open. Any known probs about that?

Open it using a terminal and paste the result here. Might give some clues.

Code: Select all

admax@Toshiba:~
$ teamviewer

Init...
CheckCPU: SSE2 support: yes
Checking setup...
Launching TeamViewer ...
Launching TeamViewer GUI ...
madmax@Toshiba:~
$ 

there is a short flickering on the screen when trying to start the prog, but nothing happens after that.

Did you install it via antiX Package Installer app?

I installed that with gdebi, but tried it before with the package installer of Antix, with the same result, not working

Just tested it with antiX-19.3 both x64 and i386 work OOTB, when installing with antiX package installer.

I installes it with the package installer that comes with antix. The installation works, but the window with the teamviewer licence agreement is empty, so I cannot do anything. That is the prob now.

Does it give hints to start teamviewer from terminal ?

Code: Select all

/opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/teamviewer
Edit: I see you already did this, no hints.

Found one possible solution
It says you have to delete all files in ~/.cache/qtshadercache/

It's a hidden folder in your home directory.
You can open it with rox-filer.
Or with terminal

Code: Select all

rox-filer ~/.cache/qtshadercache/ 
You can mark the files there in with your mouse and delete them with right-click.
