[Bug 464031] Re: Cannot do screen capture of xclock window

 

I still have the problem on Lucid, even on a system which has Intel GMA and does not have fglrx-installer installed. 
$ dpkg -l "fglrx*"
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name                     Version                  Description
+++-========================-========================-================================================================
ii  fglrx-modaliases         2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3       Identifiers supported by the ATI graphics driver

The apport-collect command fails:
$ sudo apport-collect 464031
/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk:178: PangoWarning: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text()
  response = self.w('dialog_bugreport').run()

One simple illustration of at least one aspect of the problem is to use
alt-f2 to take a screen shot of a terminal window. According to the
setting for System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual effects, you get an
image that includes the frame if 'None' is selected and an image that
does not include the frame is either 'Normal" or "Extra" is selected.

$ identify shot-none.png shot-normal.png shot-extra.png 
shot-none.png PNG 660x469 660x469+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 12.4KiB 0.010u 0:00.009
shot-normal.png[1] PNG 658x437 658x437+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 29.3KiB 0.000u 0:00.010
shot-extra.png[2] PNG 658x437 658x437+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 28.7KiB 0.010u 0:00.009

I've attached the three screen shots as alt-print-screen-shots.zip.
Please advise how to overcom the apport-collect bug so I can get the
other information you need.
