    I have found an answer for this problem here.

    There is an official package at teamviewer website and you can get it like this:

    wget http://download.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_i386.deb

    it works for x64 bit ubuntu!!

    This package is somehow different and just let's you to install it.

    Just download it and run sudo dpkg -i teamviewer_i386.deb

    update

    this works also for x64 version of ubuntu!

    and sometimes the teamviewer wont show the ID number and password, then you need to restart the teamviewer daemon with this command:

    sudo teamviewer --daemon restart

    and then start the teamviewer again
