HI, I'm in the process of doing a set of DVD backups for some of my data. I usually tell it to do them in a DVD sized slice. That option appears to have disappeared from the menu. Could someone who has it installed check to see if they have the option available? In case you are not to familiar with it, open kbackup, then under the File menu, select Profile Settings. A box should pop up and if you click the little button under Maximum Archive Size, it should show the available options. Mine has unlimited, 650Mb CD, 700Mb CD and custom. The custom will not let me enter anything in Gb.
Here is some info for my system in case I did something wrong: > r...@smoker / # emerge --info > Portage 2.2_rc33 (default/linux/x86/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, > glibc-2.8_p20080602-r1, 2.6.25-gentoo-r9 i686) > ================================================================= > System uname: > Linux-2.6.25-gentoo-r9-i686-AMD_Athlon-tm-_XP_2500+-with-glibc2.0 > Timestamp of tree: Sat, 20 Jun 2009 04:45:01 +0000 > app-shells/bash: 3.2_p39 > dev-java/java-config: 2.1.7 > dev-lang/python: 2.5.4-r2 > dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4 > sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 > sys-apps/sandbox: 1.6-r2 > sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63 > sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2 > sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 > sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 > sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 > virtual/os-headers: 2.6.29 > ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" > CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" > CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" > CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" > CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config > /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config /var/lib/hsqldb" > CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d > /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild > /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" > CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" > DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" > EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--with-bdeps y" > FEATURES="buildpkg distlocks fixpackages parallel-fetch preserve-libs > protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" > GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ > ftp://lug.mtu.edu/gentoo/ " > LANG="en_US" > LC_ALL="en_US.utf8" > LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" > LINGUAS="en_US en" > MAKEOPTS="-j2" > PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" > PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" > PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS="--timeout=600" > PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times > --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 > --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" > PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" > PORTDIR="/usr/portage" > SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" > USE="3dnow X acl acpi alsa amd arts artswrappersuid automount berkdb > bzip2 cairo cddb cdr chroot cli cracklib crypt cups curl dbus dri dvd > dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd evo exif fam fdftk fortran gdbm gif > gimp gkrellm gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk hal hbci htmlhandbook iconv > ipv6 isdnlog java javascript jbig jpeg jpeg2k justify kde ldap > libnotify libwww logrotate loop-aes mad midi mikmod mmx mng mp3 mpeg > mplayer mudflap ncurses nptl nptlonly nsplugin offensive ofx ogg > opengl openmp pam parport pcre pdf perl png ppds pppd python qt3 > qt3support qt4 quicktime readline realmedia reflection sdl seamonkey > session spell spl sqlite sse ssl startup-notification svg sysfs syslog > tcl tcpd tiff tk truetype unicode usb vorbis webkit win32codecs wma > wmf wmp x86 xml xorg xv yahoo zeroconf zlib" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1" > ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty > extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul > mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" CAMERAS="canon > ptp2" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" > KERNEL="linux" LINGUAS="en_US en" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia nv" > Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, > PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY > > r...@smoker / # emerge -1vp kbackup > > These are the packages that would be merged, in order: > > Calculating dependencies... done! > [ebuild R ] app-backup/kbackup-0.5.4-r1 USE="-debug -xinerama" > LINGUAS="-de -es -fr -it -pt -ru -sk -sv" 0 kB > > Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB > r...@smoker / # There is really not a USE flags to change on this one.
