Macros
 
Can someone help me find a good macro program that I can use on linux. I need to do stuff like have the mouse move around and click certain buttons.
If someone could help me out that would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

One for Gtk applications: http://www.gtk.org/~timj/gerd/

OpenOffice I believe has one for it's suite: www.openoffice.org

I don't know of any other Graphical macro applications but if you know any equivalent actions by running commands in a terminal or console, you should learn how to script automated tasks, like using expect or perl, etc.

As the previous post says it may be much more efficient to automate specific applications, but if you just want to record/playback X11 events there is this:
