+I use LuckyBackup which is found on the Mageia repositories. The version 
+in MCC is 0.4.6 but it was recently updated to v.0.4.7 on the 
+LuckyBackup website.[1] I installed this latest version by downloading 
+the Mandriva 10.1 64bit version and it seems to be working fine so far.
+
+It uses the standard rsync for backing up but has a nice GUI and it does 
+pretty well all types of backups that you would want to do. You just 
+have to play around with it a bit to appreciate all of its settings.
+
+Cheers,
+
