Take a screenshotΒΆ
Using the default screen capture tool on the Librem 5 is not intuitive for all users. Until this issue is resolved, we recommend the following process to reliably take a screenshot and store the image file on the filesystem:
If the
gnome-screenshot
package is not already installed, execute the following command. Then, if prompted for your password, enter the password and pressEnter
.sudo apt install gnome-screenshot
Still within the terminal window, execute the following command:
gnome-screenshot --delay=N
Let N = the delay in seconds to allow the user to prepare for the screenshot.
The image is stored in
~/Pictures
. The filename includes the timestamp of screenshot capture.
