Title:
gnome-screenshot fails (black image) and pegs CPU to 100%
Status in “gnome-utils” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have a dual screen set up with slightly different resolutions, i.e.
external screen is 1920x1200 and the laptop screen is 1920x1080.
Taking pictures with the built-in screenshot tool results in a black
image with just the mouse pointer showing.
But what makes it a serious problem is that the gnome-screenshot stays
resident (after Cancel) and pegs one CPU thread to 100%. After a few
attempts of taking screen shots, the whole CPU was maxed out! (see
attached system-monitor image)
BTW, the screen shots were taken with shutter -- just in case anyone
was wondering :)
