In Fedora 18 it works very well for me. Visit this link http://peterlevi.com/variety/how-to-install/
In one of the comments it is explained how to install it in Fedora.
Luck !!
Fedora does not have it, the one I installed was Wallch, but I had to put OpenSuse repositories in Fedora, specifically Ayatana's.
I suppose that if I make a script to download images or download one and combine it with wallch it will do something similar.
Is seriously? KDE never ceases to amaze me, but I don't have it anymore, I switched to Gnome 3
It is a good application for those who do not use KDE, what I want to know is how to put the interface in Spanish and if I can only use the clock in KDE without installing the whole package.
