Mac OS X can not run Docker natively as Docker uses Linux kernel specific features. Ubuntu Host + Vagrant with Ubuntu + Docker with Ubuntu. Docker's Ubuntu. Docker's own default base image is the standard Canonical Ubuntu minimal image. Dockerhost$ docker pull ubuntu. Mac OS X: The dock is a handy tool for quickly accessing apps, folders, and files, but it isn't terribly organized. Ubuntu: If you're using the newest versions of Ubuntu.
Plank Dock is a minimalist application dock. Similar to the projects Avant Window Navigator, Cairo Dock and wbar ( Attractive lightweight application launcher for Desktop Linux), it has the dock of Mac OS X as a model. The motto of this open-source Dock is to create a docket for Linux system which will be simple as much as possible. That is, everything is there, what a dock needs and nothing else. It is referred to by the developers as 'the simplest dock in the world'. If you need Docklets and other additional features, you can switch to the plank-based Docky.
Plank easily integrates with a variety of desktop environments and is characterized by its low resource consumption. The use of a composite manager for transparency effects is not mandatory. If one is not activated, the dock is automatically displayed with a default theme. Plank was programmed with Vala.

In earlier versions of Ubuntu, actually up to 10.10, a Mac OS X transformation pack was available for Ubuntu users (based on GTK 2.*) but now the Ubuntu 11.10 (the latest stable version) or 12.04 LTS (only alpha versions are available right now) as well as other Ubuntu derivatives such as Linux Mint, are based on GTK 3 – so the transformation pack doesn't work anymore. Both of the desktop – Unity (The default interface in 11.10) and Gnome 3 shell are quite popular. I've already covered a post about getting a Mac like look in Ubuntu 11.10 with Gnome shell desktop so this article is about Unity desktop.
If you want to make Ubuntu 11.10/12.04 look like Mac OS X Lion, then you need to install few basic things –
- GTK Theme
- Icon Theme
- Cursor Theme
- Gnome Tweak Tool (To manage themes)
- A dock application (Docky or Cairo Dock)
A cool snapshot – exploring Cairo Dock effects (using OpenGL, although you may choose to ‘no OpenGL' version of Cairo Dock if the graphics performance of your computer is poor), of my desktop after install above stuffs :

Installing Mac Theme by ‘MBoss' Packages
First of all – download the theme package (it contains theme, icons and cursors) and extract it to appropriate locations as specified –
1. Download Mac OS X GTK Theme package and extract it to ~/.themes
2. Download the Mac OS X Icon theme and extract it to ~/.icons (create that directory if it doesn't exist)
Web server for mac os x. 3. Download Mac OS X Cursor Icon theme and extract it to /usr/share/icons
For extracting cursor icons to usr/share/icons location, you need root access while browsing with nautilus
and finally you may need to change the permission settings to make it accessible also by a non root user. (By default it may be assigned root permission only).
Install Docky or Cairo
If you like Docky then install it from Ubuntu Software Center or execute (as it's there in repository by default) –
On the other hand – if you want to try Cairo Dock (as seen in screenshot) then execute these commands
Ubuntu Mac Os Theme
Gnome Tweak Tool is very handy for changing themes or tweaking other settings of Desktop so If you haven't already installed it Gnome Tweak Tool then install it by executing the command –
Ubuntu Mac Os Download
Now, open Gnome Tweak Tool and select Mac_OS_X_Lion_Theme – as indicated in above snapshot. Then, start Cairo Dock or Docky whatever you have installed. That's all I hope you are enjoying the cool look of Mac on your Ubuntu 11.10/12.04 computer. Have Fun 🙂 – let me know if any problem occurs.
Besides Gnome Tweak Tool, you could also use ‘Ubuntu Tweak‘ – a small application to tweak/customize desktop in easy way.
To install Ubuntu Tweak, execute the following commands –
Thanks to MBOSSG for his art work – i.e Mac OS X Theme, icons and cursor themes.
