Hello fellow aliens, If any of you are from Ubuntuland do you know how to solve the following problem: When I press the PrintScreen button there is a 30 second delay between the button being pressed and the shot being taken. In my settings the delay is turned off so it's not that. Research shows I'm not the only one with the issue and it's been going on since Ubuntu 12.04 It used to be fine on my machine until I installed something ( I'm not sure what or when ) I have: uninstalled gnome-screenshot disabled all screenshot shortcuts in settings installed shutter created custom shortcuts around the printscreen key that fire off shutter. But the problem is still present. I have found that if I do sudo killall gnome-keyring-daemon and then do something to fire up the keyring again eg start a print job then the delay is gone. The price of this though is that you can no longer do thinks like grab pictures off your iphone because the keyring is not restarted quite the same way as when you log in. To get that functionality back I have to log out, log back in and then of course the print screen delays are back. Does anyone know the cause of this and how to fix it?
