--- Comment #2 from Curtis Rueden <ctrueden at wisc.edu> ---
The ScreenGrabber plugin just uses java.awt.Robot#createScreenCapture().

There are numerous bug reports surrounding that method on various flavors of
Linux and various versions of the JDK.

Someone with developer skills could try using that method from a test plugin or
script, and see if the problem is specific to ImageJ, or a general bug in
OpenJDK.

As a workaround for users, I suggest using the OS's built-in screen capturing
technique; e.g., gnome-screenshot:
