Comment 6 for bug 972866

Hi,
I tried the patch suggested by dmiranda, as well as the packages shipped in quantal, which already include that patch and some other changes. Instead of a flipped image, I got blackness or total garbage as already reported in other quantal bugs.

The feedback from cogl developers is that this is a bug in the graphics card (in my case, I'm using NVIDIA with the proprietary drivers). https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/526615/linux/gnome-screenshot-creates-garbled-window-screenshots/post/3843415/#3843415

So, in any case, it's not fixed upstream. And quantal is even more broken than precise. I didn't try raring/saucy, though.
