Just as a side note, this issue happens on a different machine then the kernel panic issue (trying to get this running in more ways).

BTW Is there a way to run the image inside a Mac computer?

I was running into the same issue yesterday, but ultimately I was able to get it working like this:

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    sickcodes/docker-osx:auto
