Yesterday I managed to get a theme called Macbuntu up and running on my Linux mint 10 perfectly.
This post is a step by step guide of how to discover what Linux distro is right for you, how to get to know linux, and how to get macbuntu theme running on it, all with screenshots along the way.

Windows 10 Theme. Feels quite strange that I am starting with a Windows 10 theme for your. May 14, 2020 Undeterred, Paul has re-engineered his Mac os theme for Linux Mint, building a new Metacity theme that blends with the rest of the UI while still allowing apps using Client Side Decoration (CSD) to look the part too. The downside is that, for now, Paul’s excellent Mac os theme only affects the look and feel of applications and app window borders.
Mar 26, 2011 Mac theme for linux 26 Mar. Yesterday I managed to get a theme called Macbuntu up and running on my Linux mint 10 perfectly. This post is a step by step guide of how. Mono Dark Flattr. The beautiful Mono Dark Flattr is a fork of Flatter and Ultra-Flat-Icons with the aim.
If you already have linux installed you can skip the first four paragraphs, else keep reading.
First off if you don’t already have linux installed and have no idea where to start I recommend you follow these links; http://tinyurl.com/4dh2uwqhttp://tinyurl.com/4h9ymw7http://tinyurl.com/4q76o8h
I personally suggest that you install either ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/) or Linux Mint 10 (http://www.linuxmint.com/) as they are the easiest to get working with this theme.
After you have chosen which distro you are going to install and have downloaded the .iso to your desktop we now have to burn it to a disk. I personally recommend imgburn (http://www.imgburn.com/) for this task as it has a simple UI and is easy to use. Just open it up, insert a disk, browse for the .iso and hit burn.
Once you have burnt the linux .iso to the CD/DVD it is now live. You can just insert the disk now and follow the prompts, or you can shutdown your computer and enter BIOS (most computers require you to press F12 to enter this option, as some computers are different please check at start up as they usually state which button allows entry of BIOS, else check your computer manual. Also note that you must have the disk in the disk drive before entering BIOS else it will not work.) Once in the BIOS select the DVD/CD option in the list, and it will boot off the CD. Once it boots into linux it should have a desktop icon labelled “install linux xx” (xx representing your version of distro) with an icon that looks like a CD. Once you click on that, follow the prompts to install your linux to how you please.
Now that you have linux installed you can proceed to installing the theme, but first off get to know linux and play around with the settings if you are a first timer to linux.
Once you are comfortable with using linux you can now proceed with installing macbuntu. First off launch terminal to get started.
Terminal notes:
- $ represents a new line of the command, you should press enter when $ follows a command line, DO NOT type $ in the command line or you will end up with errors.
- Enter the text into the terminal exactly as you see it in this post, for example if it is quoted to type (without quotes) “$ wget http://fakeadress.com/download/fake/theme.tar -O tmp” then you would enter exactly “wget http://fakeadress.com/download/fake/theme.tar -O tmp”
OK so these are the terminal commands you will enter;
$ wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/macbuntu/macbuntu-10.10/v2.3/Macbuntu-10.10.tar.gz -O /tmp/Macbuntu-10.04.tar.gz $ tar xzvf /tmp/Macbuntu-10.10.tar.gz -C /tmp $ cd /tmp/Macbuntu-10.10/ $ ./install.sh Mac os download.

In case you don’t understand you should type exactly this: wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/macbuntu/macbuntu-10.10/v2.3/Macbuntu-10.10.tar.gz -O /tmp/Macbuntu-10.04.tar.gz “hit enter key and wait for commands to end” tar xzvf /tmp/Macbuntu-10.10.tar.gz -C /tmp “hit enter and wait for commands to end” cd /tmp/Macbuntu-10.10/ “hit enter” ./install.sh “hit enter”
Now if you are running Linux Mint 10 like me it will probably return you with an error along the words of “macbuntu not installed, not compatible, if you would like to continue please use ./install.sh force exiting….”
To bypass this and continue with the install (don’t worry it installed fine on mine) you will have to enter ./install.sh force into the command line and hit enter. Then it will probably bug you about a password, simply enter your user password if you have one and hit enter, don’t worry when you hit a character it won’t show up in the command line, nor will the cursor move, but it is noticing that you are entering the pw, just hit enter once you have hit the right keys for your password. It will probably ask you to confirm that you want to install, just go ahead and continue. Now it will ask you a heap of questions to do with how you would like the theme to be set up, I set the default for all of them and hit yes for all questions, if you are not sure always hit default or yes. It is the easiest way and allows you to get all features. Once it is running through it will probably come at a point where it asks “getting xx off xx. This will take xx amount of disk space, continue?” For this message, unless you are low in disk space always continue. It will probably ask you this a fair few times, just keep answering yes until finally the theme is installed. At a point it will finish installing and ask to restart, if you have no important documents or programs up then continue with the restart.
