Since you know the X11 stuff best, do you have an idea why when using
timers, the second (and further) call to XGetSubImage() returns a black
image instead of the root window content?

Does the ksmserver change the content of the root window in the
meantime?

What is your suggestion how to fix it?

Ciao,
