Question

Noob question...

But shutter not installed, print screen doesn't appear to work, screen grab not installed etc.

Answer 1

This can be achieved with ImageMagick. Install by running the command

sudo apt-get install imagemagick

To grab all desktop just type

import -window root screen.png

Or you can do it with a delay of 5 seconds

sleep 5; import -window root screen.png

Answer 2

For a lighter weight screenshot tool, use scrot

sudo apt-get install scrot

To take a screenshot, at the terminal, just type

scrot

To take a screenshot after, say, 5 seconds

scrot -d 5
