    Unhappy teamviewer cannot autostart

    * Introduction:
    I want to use teamviewer 11 to remotely control my PC, even after rebooting.
    However, if I reboot computer, teamviewer cannot autostart before/after logging in (root).

    * Necessary details:
    Kali version: Rolling edition 2016.01, x86_64
    Kali installation: HDD
    Teamviewer 11

    Solutions tried and their result
    1.
    I set "Start TeamViewer with system" in teamviewer GUI.
    => doesn't work

    1+2.
    cp /opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/teamviewerd.sysv /etc/init.d
    chmod 755 /etc/init.d/teamviewerd.sysv
    update-rc.d teamviewerd.sysv defaults => no any output
    => above all doesn't work

    1+2+3.
    add "/opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/teamviewer &" into /etc/rc.local before "exit 0"
    => doesn't work

    1+2+3+4.
    add "teamviewer enabled" to the end of /usr/sbin/update-rc.d within the whitelist
    => doesn't work


    Please help me, your idea will be greatly appreciated

    if you are using xfce (light version of Kali) go to
    application-->setting-->session & startup
    open tab Application start up, click Add and fill fields

    try this:

    Applications menu -> System Tools -> Preferences -> Startup Applications and then click the add button and write in command area such as service ssh start

    Thanks, but I can find neither system tools nor preference, even after searching ....

    I ran into this issue with guake. Here's what I did:
    open terminal
    which guake (copied path)
    cd /etc/init.d (the system runs scripts in this directory on boot)
    touch guake.sh
    opened with vi and added the following:
    #! /bin/sh
    /usr/bin/guake&
    saved and closed the file
    chmod 755 guake.sh
    update-rc.d /etc/init.d/guake.sh defaults

    Keep in mind Kali is based on Debian, so you can usually find solutions for Debian that will work on Kali.

    sounds like the same as my try

    1+2.
    cp /opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/teamviewerd.sysv /etc/init.d
    chmod 755 /etc/init.d/teamviewerd.sysv
    update-rc.d teamviewerd.sysv defaults => no any output
    => above all doesn't work
