Hi all,
I am running CentOS 7 on a NUC5CPYB. Intel video: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 35)
When I take a screen shot I get "different" things. I use: export DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/bin/xwd -silent -root -out screen; convert screen screen.png
I tried import also for the screen capture and its the same random images.
Granted the images are all things I have showing previously - but most times its not what is showing now.
I have verified the Intel driver is loaded: [ 19.009] (II) LoadModule: "intel" [ 19.010] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so [ 19.012] (II) Module intel: vendor="X.Org Foundation" [ 19.012] compiled for 1.20.1, module version = 2.99.917 [ 19.012] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 19.012] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 24.0 [ 19.012] (II) intel: Driver for Intel(R) Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810, i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 854, 852GM/855GM, 865G, 915G, E7221 (i915), 915GM, 945G, 945GM, 945GME, Pineview GM, Pineview G, 965G, G35, 965Q, 946GZ, 965GM, 965GME/GLE, G33, Q35, Q33, GM45, 4 Series, G45/G43, Q45/Q43, G41, B43 [ 19.015] (II) intel: Driver for Intel(R) HD Graphics [ 19.015] (II) intel: Driver for Intel(R) Iris(TM) Graphics [ 19.015] (II) intel: Driver for Intel(R) Iris(TM) Pro Graphics [ 19.015] (++) using VT number 1

What can be doing this ? How do I track it down? Thanks,

My guess is that it the result of applications, e.g. video players, that bypass X. xwd reads the appropriate buffers, but those buffers are not what is on the screen.
Thanks Michael
I have been using electron-kiosk - Would that be contributing to the situation? I have been playing videos - we pages etc...
Any thoughts on something to help get the right picture ?
