I have been using the Backups gui program that I believe is provided by MATE but I use KDE. The shortcut resides in the System option in the Menu. I had a TW install a few days back and this worked perfectly for me.
and that backup program is what? perhaps duplicity?
The program is literally called Backups, I have not seen it in KDE but it shows up when I install some MATE stuff. It is a GUI program in the System folder in the Menu selection.
from the command-line: rpm -qf `which Backups` I cannot find an opensuse package providing "Backups". you are going to have to explain what this program is and where it comes from. I am using Tw and have for years and cannot find anything providing "Backups" for openSUSE. just might explain why you are getting errors.
I am again using TW, second install, both installs were upgrades. When I use this Backups program, it throws an external window showing this:
what does (as root): zypper ver provide?
That says "unknown command"
sorry, should be: zypper ve
are you really getting disk errors, re subject, or just getting errors from program output?
This error above appears to be from the program.
