Here, its ctrl(left, didn't try right) and what pops up doesn't need a
drag, but its 3 different menus according to the mouse button pressed,
no drag needed. So I made it big enough to use, then fired off aptitude
as me. What didn't need root, worked much better, no screen corruption
at all. So the only thing painful might be me trying to remember this
method. :-[
