I'm assuming the backticks are NOT actually part of the command.  I.e.
you are really just typing:

xter m&

It would also be useful to report what this command says:

There's a good chance the problem is being caused by some OS
vendor-installed command_not_found_handle that can't handle being
run as a background job.
