Installing flyback on lucid lynx went fine. I then launched a backup of my home folder on an external drive and went to bed. After 8 hours flyback was still working. The backup folder was now 50gb large, but it was NOT getting bigger, not of a byte, even if Flyback kept working for another hour. I'm not sure about the exact size of the folder I was backing up, 'cause of the exclude options, but I think 50gb is an educated guess. I closed flyback and launched it again, anyway it couldn't find a working backup on the hd, even if the folder was still there. Thanks for your work, anyway, and let me know if I can help attaching some kind of log.

I had the same problema with Ubuntu 10.04. I left it working for over 12hrs.
