Bug description:
  I am running Ubuntu 12.04 inside Virtualbox on a Windows host.
  3D acceleration is enabled in Virtualbox and I am using compiz + unity, NOT unity2d.

  gnome-screenshot produces black screenshot with only the mouse pointer visible.
  it does not matter if I run it by pressing the PrintScreen key or running
  gnome-screenshot -d 5
  in a terminal.

  WORKAROUND:
  use unity2d instead of compiz+unity
