Hi there,

If you're using KDE then just use ksnapshot.

there is a program in KDE called KSnapshot.

also there is a command line tool called import. This is part of ImageMagick.

If ImageMagick is installed (usually it is by default)

The command :

Code:

import screen.jpg

will let you sellect with the mouse the part of the screen you want to capture.
If you don't want to use the mouse a command like:

Code:

import -window root screen.jpg

will capture the hole screen.See the man page for more info.

If you have imagemagick installed then you can use import.

Code:

# import -window root ~/screenshot.png

I was able to take screenshot by print screen in gnome.

Gimp does it too... import works best though!
