Unable to take X Window Snapshot.

I was able to do this the first time I logged in. After that I tried it a few times, the icon comesup in the task bar below and rotates, tries to open and then closes.

Please assist.

Thanks.

It's a problem with application you use for snapshoots. Run it from shell emulator, and post errors. It's the only way one could know what's the problem with application

How can I run this program from shell emulator ? What is the program command for this ?
I am a bit confused.

Thanks.

It depend of what program you use for taking screen shoots.
See the command from yours DE menu, or write the name of application. Those are same or very similar.
btw: Find in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin something sound like the app you use, it's probably it!

This was solved. I just found a different program.
This one is in the Graphics in the KDE Menu.
