Debian :: Take A Screenshot Of A Selected Area?
Feb 20, 2011
I use Debian Squeeze and I would like to ask if someone knows a program to take a screenshot of a selected area of my screen. I already know imageshack and scrot, but they don't do what I need because I need to know previously coordinates and the dimension of the selected area. I need a program that I could select a rectangle with my mouse to take a screenshot of that part.I don't know if I'm clear what I'm trying to say is that I need something like this google-chrome plugin[URL]

I have a problem with Gnome-screenshot and Select area to grab : a crosshair appears, but no lines to select an area. I've also added a Custom ApplicationLauncher to my gnome-panel with command :import -frame screenshot.png having the same problem..The weird thing is that after using ksnapshot ( I've been using KDE before ) the aforementioned applications will work as they should

On my Mac, when I press F2, I am able to take a screen shot of a selected area. Is it possible to assign a hot key to do the same thing on my Ubuntu 10.04 PC?

if there is a way of selecting a specific area of the screen and increase brightness? The thing is that I had to reduce my monitor brightness and contrast, due to recurring headaches. The new configuration is fine for most applications, but videos on web pages are too dark. I have created a script that allows me to change nvidia settings quickly, but when switching to the brighter setup my eyes hurt even if it is just for a moment. So I would like to be able to brighten a specific area of the screen.

I have a multi-user machine with several network interfaces (Ethernet, if that matters). I wish to grant selected users, or groups, full access to selected network interfaces (including ability to adjust IP address and to bind to low ports, but *only* on those interfaces). It is important to me that an user/group does not such full control over other interfaces. Granting partial, or temporary, root permissions is OK; it's a friendly environment.How do I go about it?System: Linux 2.6.recent; usual Debian setup (can be adjusted if needed).

One can take a screenshot - i.e. to store it in the memory by pressing PrtScr. But I failed to find how to write it into a graphic file? In particular in Xfce which does not have a graphic file editor

In my office there is a department where the access of internet & intranet is very limited. I've been given a task that I should add a script which would automatically take screenshots of the PCs. The script works fine, but I can't make it work with the cron jobs. There are many methods given on the internet to grab screen, but none of them works with cron.

I installed the 64-bit version of Debian Squeeze yesterday and noticed when exiting either the XFCE or LXDE desktops by selecting Restart or Reboot, the computer does not reboot back to the BIOS and GRUB, it simply reloads Linux without rebooting the hardware - no warm boot. XFCE and LXDE are the only desktop environments installed.
The 32-bit version of Debian installed on other computers, correctly reboots the hardware when the same option is selected.
Is there a file I could look at (or perhaps add a particular boot parameter) that will force a proper reboot of the hardware when that option is selected, or is that how the 64-bit version is designed to work?

I have a Dell VOSTRO laptop that I use for windows Vista. I have an old disk drive that I put into a USB case and now I want to use that for a Debian system. I do not want to install grub on my laptops HDD, if I do I need to have the USB HDD plugged in everytime I boot and i find that a real pain. I installed Debian on the USB drive with no problem and when it asked where I wanted to install GRUB I picked the USB drive ( I think ). Now when I interupt the boot and tell it to boot from the USB drive grub comes up with the correct menu but when I pick Debian I get the following messages:
Booting 'Debian GNU/Linux Kernel 2.6.26-2-amd64' root (hd1,0) Filesystem type unknown partition type 0xde kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-amd64 root=/dev/sdb1 ro quiet Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition

I just bought an HP Pavilion dv7-1273cl and it works excellent except for the sound and the webcam, the result for lspci is as follows:
lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Memory Controller Hub (rev 07)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset PCI Express Graphics Port (rev 07)
00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 03)
00:1a.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB UHCI Controller #5 (rev 03)
00:1a.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #2 (rev 03)
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
Gnome volume control shows that HDA Intel(Alsa mixer) is selected and as a default the speaker is muted, if I unmute it, an infinite loop-like sound plays and no application seems to have access to the sound, I believe the correct module is installed by default, and the webcam does not work as well. I'm using debian squeeze i386.

I am NOT willing (nor is my IBM T41 for that matter) to make from source the new conky 1.7.2, so can someone give me a deb file for squeeze that I can install to my system to replace my current 1.7.1 conky? I really want to use lua scripts. (Specifically: [URL])
how to remove the black area behind conky without using compositing?

At home I have two computers running linux connected to the same router. I would like to be able to connect them so that I can move files between them and execute simple commands. What is the most simple way to access a prompt on the other computer or to mount a partition currently used by the other computer?Using the www it is possible to connect two computers using ssh, but it should be easier to do this over the LAN, right? I have been googling a lot but not found anything.

Things beyond my control are causing me to rush a bit in getting the website moved. I'm working hard to try and get it done, but something else has come up that SSL Certificate.I know that our website's "basket" area is protected by an SSL certificate to ensure customer information, especially credit info, is secure. With the move to Amazon's service, it looks like I may need to create our own self-signed SSL certificate to ensure the basket area remains secure.
I have found guides that walk through how to make one yourself and configuring apache to allow it, but something else has come to mind. The guides I found don't really indicate where the SSL certificate goes afterwards, and also doesn't suggest which sections should be governed by the certificate (as only the basket section uses it, not anything else). How would I find out that information?

I started a second X server and I am trying to take a screenshot of the original display from the second X server. This is what I have tried
import -window root -display :0 screenshot.png
If I run this from display :0 then all is fine, but if I run it from display :1, then I get an image that is almost all black (a few icons in the upper right shows up - namely the volume, laptop battery status, and wireless connection status - but that's it).

I've been having the weirdest problem with some aspect of my operating system: This is a screenshot of Google Chrome 11.0.696.57 running in Linux 2.6.37.6 with Xorg server 1.9.5 with the FGLRX display drivers 8.841 on a Radeon HD 4870. The display drivers, kernel and X server were not upgraded before this started happening. I have also not modified my xorg.conf.
As you can see, the red pixels show up just about anywhere a bitmap is changed. It has been happening in every program and not just the browser. Sometimes they flicker, always appearing at random.As far as I can tell, the Linux TTY (outside of X) is not affected. The fact that this is capturable in a screenshot rather than just appearing as pixels on the screen is what puzzles me. If you have any information as to what might be causing this, and hopefully how to solve it, (or even a theory) please post below.
Other information:
Slackware 13.37
Running Fluxbox 1.3.1
My /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Edit:Switching TTYs (via ctrl-alt-F[1-9]) and back seems to dissipate the effect, at least temporarily.

I frequently need to take screenshots of a game (flash-based, running inside a browser), in particular it's statistics screen which is shown when I hold the TAB key. The problem is, when I take a screenshot, either by pressing PrintScreen key or by pressing a custom-defined shortcut, the game responds to this keypress and hides its statistics screen, so the screenshot doesn't contain the information I need.I figured out how to overcome this using a custom application launcher icon; but this requires using the mouse which is rather inconvenient.define a shortcut that wouldn't be processed by the active application? Or maybe there's some screenshot utility that does this out of the box?
