6 years ago the built in screenshot function relies on X, cloud it be that your ubuntu is running wayland?
I'll look into it, for now you can work around with by making a script like sharenix-section but for fullscreen, like so (call it sharenix-full or something):
#!/bin/bash
sleep 0.2s
if command -v xfce4-screenshooter > /dev/null 2>&1; then
xfce4-screenshooter -f -o "sharenix -n"
exit $?
fi
# some implementations of mktemp (such as busybox's) don't allow
# extensions at the end of the template so we rename the file
sharenixtmp=$(mktemp /tmp/nicememe.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX)
mv "$sharenixtmp" "$sharenixtmp.png"
sharenixtmp="$sharenixtmp.png"
if command -v gnome-screenshot > /dev/null 2>&1; then
gnome-screenshot -f $sharenixtmp || exit $?
elif command -v scrot > /dev/null 2>&1; then
scrot $sharenixtmp || exit $?
else
echo "Couldn't find scrot, gnome-screenshot or " \
"xfce4-screenshooter."
echo "Please install either of them and try again"
exit 1
fi
# check file size (0b means that gnome-screenshot was cancelled)
sharenixtmpsize=$(wc -c <"$sharenixtmp")
if [ $sharenixtmpsize != 0 ]; then
sharenix -n $sharenixtmp
exit $?
fi
echo "Screenshot canceled"
exit 1

my console:
Even though it says taking screenshot nothing happens
window and section capture work fine (picture was made via section capture)
