Well, It wasn't clear which of the dozens of RPMs I would need from that repository so I just picked the first one, google-drive-ocamlfuse and let yast figure out the rest (and it turns out I needed nothing else).
Sorry, forgot to tell: all those ocaml packages was needed for the build, the package google-drive-ocamlfuse includes everything, that is needed to use this thing.
Then I followed the directions (as user, not root) from this page: https://github.com/astrada/google-drive-ocamlfuse/blob/master/doc/Usage.md and after answering a couple web page pop-ups from Google, It was up and running quite painlessly.
Hehe, the package description might be sufficient, but a README.SuSE would cut it better, I admit.
Mounting and unmounting went well. Access is as fast as your internet connection and all the functions of KDE Dolphin work, (previews, etc) because Dolphin thinks its a local drive.
Yes, the beauties of FUSE.
ODT documents all insist they are locked by another user, so you can't edit them in place. I seem to remember people having the same problem on NAS storage.
Will check this out.
All in All, fairly painless.
Great, thanks for the feeedback.
----note: Google still is promising a native linux Drive app, but they appear to be in no hurry as the promise has been on that page for a long time.
Sure, but don't expect too much. Look at Google Earth (if you find some random version, that is not crashing right from the start). It seems, they're are not capable to get and keep things stable, if the userbase is smaller than 10 millions.. Consequently, they ignore related bug reports. Needless to say, I hate this attitude.
