You can do this with crontab. You just need to..

• Enter a terminal and type crontab -e

• If you are asked to do so, follow the instructions on the prompt to select an editor. It will display a list of available editors. select the one you want.

• When the editor opens, you will see a config file. At the bottom of the file, add the following:

@reboot /usr/bin/teamviewer --daemon start

• Be sure to save, and you are done. Make sure you enter the full path to any commands you enter. For example, if you were calling echo, instead of echo you would need to use /usr/bin/echo.

To see everything cron can do, check out the manual page with man crontab.
