In Ubuntu 10.10 wmctrl (1.07) moves terminal windows fine for me.
However, there are other windows that wmctrl can't move/resize as I want. For example, I have my X display spread across dual 1600x1200 monitors for an effective 3200x1200 desktop
wmctrl -r 'Google Chrome' -e 0,1200,0,1000,1000
will move the window to 1600 instead of 1200, although the same geometry works for a terminal window:
wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,1200,0,1000,1000
My window manager is compiz but I have the same issue if I run metacity.
