Bug Description
1. Install Ubuntu
2. change the desktop picture ("wallpaper")
3. sudo aptitude install xfce
Hopefully, you may skip to step 7
4. sudo aptitude install gnome
5. sudo aptitude install kde
(6. Ahem... install the kde russian, polish and chinese language packs and switch the system back to English -- if this step is required, this one is really weird)
7. Take the screenshot (default options, whole desktop)
Expected: screenshot is taken, the system does not crash, the desktop image remains the same, the xfce default one with a running rat
Actual: screenshot is taken, xfce desktop is replaced by the image chosen for the unity, THE SYSTEM CRASHES (all desktop controls disappear), you can do nothing with keyboard and/or mouse
The only way that works after this crash is a reboot. (Unsafe one, because you cannot safely shutdown the system either).
