Credit Linuxformat magazine for this hack:
Getting a screen shot from an X session from a non-X virtual console:
Linux has virtual terminals that you can get to by key commands like
Control-alt-F1.  Go to one.
Then issue the command:

chvt 7;sleep 2;import -display :0.0 -window root somename.png;chvt 1;

1)chvt and sleep
          changes to the terminal to capture from
                2)import captures the image
                                                       3) chvt changes back
