At this time, Keep works well only with the file:/ url locations. It means that a media:/floppy url will not work. You can try to use the mountpoint (ie /media/floppy/) as the backup location but you will not be sure that the backup will be done (ie: if floppy not present) and have no error message if this happens.
I plan to integrate system:/ url in next major release and a notification system which will enable you to make backups on almost every kind of device you have :). - Jan 26 2006

Yes it would be very fine, and there is already a KDE tool which is designed to perform that kind of manipulations. It's call Kamion. I will try to see with the author of this soft if we can imagine an integration of these functionnalities into Keep.

Ok I see what you mean. At the moment, Keep has its own KDED daemon which watch the backup directory at startup and every hour. So in the worse case, you'll have to wait 60 minutes to have your backup done, but in general the backup is made at startup.

Thank for the comment! You're right cuurently, Keep behaves preety much the same than a fine tuned tar and cron but in the future, advanced features will be added (look at the TODO) which I hopes will be very useful and quit the problem of data management of the user mind.

Sorry i have ripped of the files because Kay has been integrated, after a lot of debuggage, refactoring and features add, in KDE. So i'am afraid that you will be forced to wait untill october to have the medianotifier (in KDE 3.5).
I hope you'll like it.

Thanks for your kind comment!
First of all i have to say that Kay will be integrated into KDE 3.5 under the name of medianotifier so i apologyse but no new version untill that time.
For you features request:
- Timeout is a pretty good idea i'll think about it!
- Using standard icon dialog:done! (moreover you'll see that many enhancement have been made by Kevin Ottens to the the configuration dialog!)
- KDE policy implies now to give a media:/ url when using a media so i don't want to give an other url but i think the problem you quote will shortly been fixed
- For DVD recognization trouble it comes from media kioslave because all Kay do is listening to that slave but i'll see with Kevin what i can do to fix it!
I hope you'll like next version of Kay!

Okay thanks to everybody comments and thanks to kevin otten, next version of Kay will automaticly listen to event, have its actions on the context menu of the medias, use the mimetypes of the media to filter the action displaying, use desktop file to store the actions, have the automatic action performing based on the mimetype instead of the device name.
Big program! If everything goes right the 0.4.0 version might be out before the first of july!
Thanks all for the feedback.
PS: if you have ideas for others neats features, post a comment to let me know it ;). - Jun 24 2005
