To make a poor man's screenshot from FR's terminal:<br>
<br>
sleep 5 ; cp /dev/fb0 screen.dump<br>
<br>
The "sleep 5" gives you time to switch to the screen you want to<br>
shoot (or do remotely from an ssh session). You get a 4 MB<br>
screen dump, I use the following command on the<br>
desktop-PC to convert it to a png:<br>
<br>
fbgrab -f screen.dump -b 16 -h 640 -w 480 screen.png<br>
<br>
<br>
I installed fbgrab on my gentoo desktop - its in portage.<br>
