I tried the first one, but after running:
$ sudo bash /tmp/shot.sh >/tmp/shot.xwd
I'm getting this:
No protocol specified
No protocol specified
xwd unable to open display ':0'
and i'm getting an xwd file in my tmp folder.
running the other commands giving errors.
tried the second one, after running:
chvt 8; sleep 5; XAUTHORITY=/var/gdm/:0.Xauth DISPLAY=:0.0 import -window root /tmp/gdm-login-shot.png
I got:
No protocol specified
No protocol specified
import: unable to open X server ':0.0' @ error/import.c/ImportImageCommand/366

ubuntu@PrecisePangolin:~$ sudo bash /tmp/shot.sh >/tmp/shot.xwd
bash: /tmp/shot.xwd: Permission denied
