           Summary: pressing print screen deactivates gnomine, making it
                    pause, preventing me from taking a screenshot
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: metacity
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: madewokherd at gmail.com
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


That was pretty much the whole description in the summary. To reproduce: start a
game of minesweeper (actually click on a square) in gnome with metacity, and try
to take a screenshot of it by pressing print screen or alt+print screen. In the
screenshot, gnomine will say "Press to Resume" and not show the minefield
because it was deactivated before the screenshot was taken.

Note that running a shell command like "sleep 5; gnome-screenshot --window"
works fine. I can't imagine why metacity starting gnome-screenshot would fail if
this works.
