Here's a download page for the 32-bit version. The link is on the right under "Downloadable Files".

Just download the .deb file and double click it to open it and install it with Software Center.

@brunopereira81 It's the latest version they have a build for on their site. I downloaded it on 11.10 and it installed fine. If you want to download the latest source form here you could probably compile it yourself.

okis, thought could be any problems with it for the lack of updates or something.
