"restore window geometry" has never worked for me. Well maybe I don't 
know exactly what it is supposed to do.  What does work for me is to 
select "custom position" and then click "get position" button. I do this 
for each window I'm interested and it works fine.

I do this under Windows (Win2000 & XP) and Linux (Ubuntu 6.04-7.10).

I vary my window managers often. I use Gnome, FVWM2, XFCE... My process 
works with all of them.
