Start here

Install on Fedora or openSUSE

Download the package and open it to install it with your software center:

Download the .rpm

Or install it from a terminal:

Terminal
# Fedora
sudo dnf install https://github.com/RielJ/kakemono/releases/latest/download/kakemono-linux-x64.rpm


# openSUSE
curl -LO https://github.com/RielJ/kakemono/releases/latest/download/kakemono-linux-x64.rpm
sudo zypper install ./kakemono-linux-x64.rpm

Then open kakemono from your app launcher.

Its icon appears in the system tray. On GNOME, the tray needs the AppIndicator extension.

kakemono works on GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, Cinnamon, MATE, Hyprland, sway and many window managers. If the wallpaper doesn’t change, see Linux desktops.

The first time you open it

A Welcome window walks you through four short screens. On the third one you can change the wallpaper right away, turn on the timer, and choose whether kakemono starts when you log in.
