Google Drive

Thanks to the guys at NoobsLab

Ubuntu 12.04 now has a Google Drive app that works flawlessly. Grive is an unofficial app which only supports Ubuntu 12.10 and newer but it works great following the steps here at the NoobsLab site for those running Ubuntu 12.04 Precise.
 

You can visit The Fan Club who has put the package together and if you are running 12.10 or newer their site is all you need.

To install Grive & Grive-Tools in Ubuntu 12.04 32Bit Precise/Linux Mint 13 open Terminal (Press Ctrl+Alt+T) and copy the following commands in the Terminal:









After installation in Ubuntu 12.04/its derivatives open terminal and type sudo grive-setup to configure Google Drive account for Grive.
That's it

This is not the current release of Grive as the current build will not work on 32Bit systems due to dependency issues. This should be fixed in future releases.
