Few months ago, we wrote about Insync, a Google Drive client for Linux systems, including Ubuntu. Yesterday, Insync hits beta 9 (0.9.24), and this tutorial shows you how to install it in Ubuntu 12.10 (Quantal Quetzal).

This released version fixes few issues, including symlinks not live syncing, Nautilus context menu not showing, and GLIBC errors.

Insync will let you synchronize your Google Drive in Ubuntu easily. This is by far the best Google Drive Linux client available today.
