Q: Where can I find TeamViewer's logfiles?
A: The easiest way is to run TeamViewer, click on Extras | Open Logfiles.

   If you want to contact our support team, please run the following command on
   a command line to gather all relevant information in a zip file:
   teamviewer --ziplog
   
   If you are using the tar.gz version of TeamViewer, you have to switch to the
   directory where you unpacked it and execute:
   ./teamviewer --ziplog


Q: Does TeamViewer support text consoles?
A: No, text modes are not supported by TeamViewer.
   However, you can use a graphical terminal emulator like xterm or 
   konsole.


Q: How can I improve the performance of remote support to Linux-based machines?
A: Performance can be improved greatly if compositing is disabled before 
   opening the connection. (Compositing is used to achieve various effects like 
   semi-transparent or wobbly windows.) On KDE, compositing can be toggled with 
   the default shortcut Shift+Alt+F12.

A: The following functions are not available:
   - Virtual Private Network connections (VPN)

   - Restriction of options to administrators only
   - Support for sending web-camera images; however, receiving video content 
     from partners' web-cams is supported.
   - Whiteboard
