Install Nuvola Player 1.0.5 in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise via PPA
Install Nuvola Player 1.0.4 in Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric/11.04/10.10/10.04Linux Mint via PPA

Nuvola Player runs web interface of cloud music service in its own window and provides integration with a Linux desktop (system tray, Ubuntu sound menu, dock menu and notifications). Currently supported services are Google Play, Grooveshark, Hype Machine, 8tracks and other.

The latest stable Nuvola Player release 1.0.5 contains simple workaround that sets window size to magic values that worked during my tests. However, these values may be dependent on user settings, e.g. GTK theme, window manager, font sizes, whatever.

• sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nuvola-player-builders/stable
