MacBuntu 16.10 Transformation Pack for Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety
MacBuntu
(Macbuntu Yosemite/El Capitan) transformation pack is ready to take off
and land on your Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak. It offers two themes for GTK
(which supports: Unity, Gnome, Cinnamon, Mate and Xfce), one theme for
Gnome Shell, one for Cinnamon, two icon packs, and cursors. Unlike last
time we are not sharing boot/splash for macbuntu and theme for
lightdm-webkit because there are some issues within the Ubuntu 16.10.
Slingscold which is known as launchpad, it does work on some desktops
but it may don't work for some users and you may see blank launcher. We
are using and recommending Plank dock with this pack because it is
lightweight and works with all desktops without any issues. Also credit
goes to Jared
for helping us with this transformation pack. By following these
instructions you can change look of your Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety to look
like Mac. In previous packs we used LightDM webkit theme which looks
quite similar to Mac OS X login screen, this time we aren't offering,
because we experienced a lot of issues after installing it (like: not
able to login/blank screen). Also Bootscreen has some issues.
As
we always recommend to transform your desktop by yourself, so you know
what you are doing and can reverse it easily, we can make automatic or
semi-automatic scripts but it will be only for one desktop and it won't
be good idea that's why are not automating it. By offering this pack no
hate or infringing behavior is intended, simply designed for those who
don't want to use Mac or can't use Mac for any reason.
Note: If you encounter any bug in theme/icons/any stuff, report to us with screenshot or problem with details.
