WolfViewer for Linux

Add our package repository once. WolfViewer then installs like any other app, appears in your applications menu, and every new version arrives with your system's normal updates.

For 64-bit PCs (x86_64). The packages are signed; the key's fingerprint is 462C C46A 33EC C9B1 E0F4 0E88 91F4 1EF4 CB1C 45A2.

Install with one command

Open a terminal, paste this, and enter your password when asked. It works out which Linux you have and does the rest.

sudo bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://wolf-grid.com/linux/setup.sh)"

Works on Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian, Pop!_OS, Fedora, Rocky, AlmaLinux, openSUSE, Arch, Manjaro and EndeavourOS. When it finishes, start WolfViewer from your applications menu, or type wolfviewer.

Like to see what a script does before you run it? Read setup.sh (opens in a new tab). It adds the repository and key, installs WolfViewer, and changes nothing else. Or use the steps below.

Or set it up yourself

Choose your Linux. Each one shows the same steps the script runs, plus how to update and how to remove WolfViewer.

Other ways

  • Download the archive for any other 64-bit Linux. Unpack it anywhere and run ./wolfviewer; it updates itself when a new version is out.
  • On a Raspberry Pi, a Chromebook or another machine that is not 64-bit x86, use WolfStorm (opens in a new tab) in your browser instead.
