When taking a screenshot, there is a gray image displayed.

Before upgrading to Ubuntu 13.04 the screenshot was working properly, however, after the upgrading process the screenshot wont work no more. I tried to verify which package was the problem from: gnome-screenshot, I unistalled it and installed back on my laptop, but it wont work anyways.

I got the same problem, even with Shutter, the only way I found to be able to fix it is to reset Unity.

Open a terminal and run the following commands:

dconf reset -f /org/compiz/





unity --reset-icons

Easy to do, but not suitable for everyone I guess.
