Hello Jan. I had the same symptoms using Sidux and KDE4 (441628). I installed backintime-gnome (yeh it pulled in a bunch of other gnome packages) but it seems to work just fine. For your info.

Status in Back In Time: New Bug description: Using Kubuntu 9.10 and the le-web repository. Installed versions (backintime-common and backintime-kde) are 0.9.26-3. If I start backintime from the commandline, the KDE4-frontend comes up. Clicking the "Backup"-Icon starts the backup-process which will work correctly. I have configured a daily backup-schedule. "crontab -l" gives: @daily nice -n 19 /usr/bin/backintime --backup-job >/dev/null 2>&1 Unfortunately this does _not_ seem to work. The backup-process starts, correctly, every midnight, but it will hang. In the notification area the icon will be "unclickable" but show a tooltip stating that it's comparing the last backup. It will hang there for several days if not killed manually (using htop, oder whatever). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~bit-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~bit-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
