Thanks a lot, Gerry!
That's a great answer. It shed a lot of light on the issue.

I tried disabling metacity's compoziting manager using gconftool and it worked flawlessly. Whole screen was captured.

Unfortunately, I can't use anything, but xwd like utilities. The cause of the issue was inside java's screen capturing abilities (java.awt.Robot), which use sources from xwd for screen capturing.

But I wonder, why does it work in Ubuntu 11.04.
Probably, it uses another XShaping routing there?

Do you know any good resources about compoziting/XShaping? Or, at least, where can I find XShaping routine's sources?
