Flyback Towards a Time Machine Clone for Linux
Some members of the Open Source community have taken such a shine to Time Machine, they have been working on bringing the feature to Linux, even while some Mac users are complaining about problems with the technology. Dubbed Flyback, the project has been working on developing an rsync-based GUI solution for Linux with Time Machine as the model.
Flyback lacks the OpenGL-based 3D effects of Time Machine, as well as many of the features of Apple’s solution. The developers’ focus has instead been on the principle purpose of Time Machine, which is snapshot-based backups that allow you to revisit previous incarnations of your hard drive.
