i guess it depends on your X server and graphic card,
i've tried this ( even iconified Gem's output )
and it works fine with XFree 4.1 on a Trident Cyberblade.
btw, it's true, the number of buffers is temporarily set to 1
for capturing the frame then restored to its initial value,
otherwise the pixels capture doesn't work.
