In KDE you can use KSnapshot. There's also xgrab (segfaults on my system) and Gnome probably has something. For a console you can just cut and paste. KSnapshot includes a settable time delay and the ability to only grab the window containing the mouse or the entire screen or a region. You can always crop or scale a screenshot with something like xv or gimp.
