Ubuntu 22.04 (Wayland) cannot use wmctrl like Trisquel 11 (X11) and 
Ubuntu MATE 23.04 (X11) . For Ubuntu, my devilspie2 solution works, I'm 
sure there are other solutions. However, please, let's focus why wmctrl 
cannot be executed from init in Trisquel and Ubuntu MATE right now to 
avoid more confusion.
