Hi,

Since i dist-upgraded two of my sid boxes, i'm unable on those machines
to right click on the desktop.
When i do so, no menu appears.
If i reduce xrootconsole i can click outside of it (not very practical).

The only way to fix this would be to re-write xrootconsole, so if this
behavior is not acceptable, I recommend using root-tail instead.
