[Bug 1410559] [NEW] 14.10 - Taking Screenshots stops working after an app is opened

 

Public bug reported:

This may or not be a gnome-screenshot issue, to me it seems to be a
system issue:

Fresh install of Ubuntu 14.10, Dell D630 Core 2Duo, 2.6Ghz. 240G SSD,
Intel 965 Video. Taking screenshots works when first logged in but
afterwards every screenshot becomes distorted. Seems to happen right
after opening an app, Firefox, or Geary for an example. Installed
Shutter, same exact problem, tried with Gimp, same thing.

Installed Mate Desktop, works perfect, no issues whatsoever.
