+fbdump (captures the visible portion of framebuffer to stdout)
+
fbdump is a simple tool that captures the contents of the visible portion of
the Linux framebuffer device and writes it to the standard output as a PPM
file. In other words, it takes a screenshot of anything running on the
framebuffer. It currently has fairly complete support for packed-pixel
framebuffer types and also works with the VGA16 framebuffer driver.
-To get a popular image format, issue a command like
-'fbdump | pnmtopng > shot.png'
+To get a popular image format, issue a command like:
+
+ fbdump | pnmtopng > shot.png
+
+Note: fbdump is rather slow on modern systems with high-resolution
+framebuffers at 32-bit color depth. On the maintainer's system, it takes
+8 seconds to dump a 1920x1080x32 framebuffer. Be patient.
