[Bug 752065] Re: Screen goes black when capturing image when running on VM Fusion

 

I had exactly the same problem with a Ubuntu 12.04 guest running in
VirtualBox.

In the end it was extremely simple to resolve:

- Install gnome classic desktop "sudo apt-get install gnome-panel", I personally prefer this to Unity anyway so win win!
- Logout and login using "Gnome Classic (No effects)

As if by magic Sikuli was happy and so was I!
