Are there any good GUI tape backup programs around?

Amanda (http://www.amanda.org) is a very good system. I *think* it's still free for local server use.

It used to be extremely good, then it got all stupid and started charging, and also refusing to acknowledge many tape drives ( real SCSI ones like yours are ok, but the ones that pretended to be hard drives weren't ).

Sorry, brain in neutral. I meant arkeia, not amanda ( good product, but not gui based ). See www.arkeia.com for detail. Sad to say, it looks like even the single stand-alone linux version is now no longer free... ther're charging on volume of data saved now... unless the following paragraph applies to you:

In addition, a free version of Arkeia Server Backup is available for protecting less than 50 gigabytes.
