Hey guys, Happy New Year to you both. Here's to a great year for Back in Time. I see that Dan was ironing out the notification icon bugs in KDE, is that the last stopper before the final beta? I have started work on a config file restore option, but I'm not going to push that for version 1. We a

Hi guys, When I did my testing of ionice on my netbook I ran BiT for the first time and BiT asked me if I wanted to update my snapshot location. I don't think it should ask this question if BiT was never run on the system before, that is if there are no snapshots to update. - Richard -- "Asking

Hey guys, I implemented ionice for most of the file operations that BiT does. I tested it slightly on my netbook and it seems to work ok. BiT will still be in the Best Effort I/O scheduling class but it will be the lowest priority in that class. I also did a change to save the config file with ea

Perhaps "Refresh view" is better because "Refresh snapshots" can still mean to perform a new snapshot. On Mon, Dec 7, 2009 at 9:21 AM, Dan wrote: > The button is there for people who start BIT before plugging-in the > external drive. This button force to refresh the GUI. > I agree, "Refresh snap

Hi guys, I apologize for my absence, my computer is still down, and with it the work I was doing on the combo box to select the hour of backup for the daily and greater backups. As for moving the battery checkbox to the Options tab, I just did that and uploaded the revision. I can't test it since

backintime uses cron so you can always edit your crontab to customise the scheduling. There is a bug in the current release called "Overzealous removal of crontab entries" which will knock out your custom cron lines, but a fix for that is coming in the next release. As for having more hourly optio
