  1. Open a console window and go to the directory where you saved the tar file.
    Run tar -xvf \[filename of downloaded tar file\] to untar the file.
    It will automatically create a subdirectory of “teamviewer” for you.

  2. cd into the “teamviewer” subdirectory. Run
    ./tv-setup checklibs to check that all necessary libraries are installed.
    (You may need to install QT Quick Controls.
    Do this by running sudo dnf install qt5-qtquickcontrols).

  3. Assuming all libraries are present, test that TeamViewer will run on your system with the command QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb ./teamviewer.
    If TeamViewer launches, you can then move on to install TeamViewer.

  4. Close TeamViewer if it is running from the previous step.
    Install TeamViewer with the command ./tv-setup install

  5. Once it’s installed you need to modify the entry in the Plasma launcher.
    Find TeamViewer in the launcher, right-click it, then select Edit Application.
    In the Environment Variables field paste in QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb like this:
