[winswitch] popup menues are still outside the screen with 2 monitors

[Thomas Koch]

Thank you for looking into this. I added the modeline to /etc/xpra/xorg.conf 
and tested with iceweasel 32, right-clicking the "open-menu" button which is 
on the right and opens a context menu. Unfortunately, the context-menu is 
still drawn outside the screen.

Just after giving up and opening this mail, I also tested eclipse and there it 
works!

I added
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/xpra/libfakeXinerama.so.1.0
to my shell startup script and confirmed that it is necessary.

I removed 
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/xpra:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
from the servers xpra startup script. It's not necessary.

It's curious that Iceweasel and Eclipse behave differently!

My left monitor is turned.

It's a pity that it's still necessary to know anything about modelines 
nowadays. I totally have no idea what these numbers are about and why it's 
2728 instead of 2730... :-( It's even more sad that my monitor configuration 
was automatically detected but that the modeline still needs to be added 
manually to xorg.conf. (Pull requests welcome, I suppose...)
