OK, save the shell script 'Screenshot-LightDM' in the attachment to a
dir '/usr/local/bin'.

Do not forget to chmod the script:
# chmod +x /usr/local/bin/Screenshot-LightDM

Instead of the command in 3rd step, run this script:
# Screenshot-LightDM

-------------- next part --------------
#!/bin/sh
PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH"

# Create a LightDM's greeter screenshot

export DISPLAY=:0
# export DISPLAY=:1
export XAUTHORITY=/var/run/lightdm/root/$DISPLAY 

chvt 1 &&
sleep 5 &&
xwd -root -out screenshot-lightdm.xwd &

exit 0
