Help getting mac os x dock simulator to work

[iamthwee]

Hullo Daniwebbers.

OK I'm following this tutorial.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin

I have the latest version of ubuntu with gnome and I'm trying to get the os x dock to work. I need help please. Do I need beryl or compiz?

Ok I got it.

The easiest way to get compiz working is to follow this:

I had to make sure my graphics card was configured. System > preferences >desktop effects >enable effects (followed instructions from there as it automatically configured it)

Then I went to applications > avant window. (install the osx dock theme system > awn manager).Then you can just drag the programs onto the startup bar.

By accident I deleted the panel at the bottom. Now every time when I minimize something it just disappears. How can I get this back :(

btw This theme is freaking awesome!

The minimize, close, and maximize butttons are on the wrong side btw.

Well I followed all the stuff, apart from the fonts and beryl set-up. I don't mind it being on the r-h-s anyway.

My old system has a new lease of life, I might even go out at get another 512DDR MB ram module so the responsiveness of the wobbly windows etc is better.

OK I decided to try and install the beryl and all the stuff I had missed before but the open and close bits are still on the wrong side (see attachment) what should I do? :'(

[iamthwee]

Drats wrong attachment, here it is: Any advice?

Maybe you should use this instead?

[iamthwee]

Please explain the difference between that and the one I am using?

Use gtk this theme instead. It places the control buttons on the left.
