Backup/Restore software?



I've been religiously backing up my Windows machine for years with a
program called Acronis True Image.  It works well, lets me backup my
system to a second hard drive in the computer, and will do a weekly full
backup and daily incremental backups, cleaning up older backup chains
and so on.

My Linux machine (Debian 6.0.7 at the moment, but planning on updating
to Wheezy soon), on the other hand, has gone far too long without any
real backup protection.  I'd like to rectify that if I can. :-)

Is there a Linux backup package that will do pretty much what I
described above?  I want to be able to set it and forget it so it just
runs every night on its own and that way I have about a week or two's
worth of backups to fall back on.  I need it to be able to do a full
restore in case of a disaster as well as being able to restore selected
files/directories in case of a "oh why did I rm *that*?" moment. :-)

Any suggestions?
