Context menu disappeared

I haven't found any reference to this on the web.

At some point today, the context menu stopped showing up when I press
mouse button 3. If I press it while over a link, that link just gets a gay
outline, nothing more happens. Also, button 2 does nothing on a link,
while it should open that link in another tab.

Exactly the same problem is there for Epiphany, while Mozilla and Firefox
work as before.

Restarting the X session didn't help. Nor did `gconftool-2 --shutdown'.


I can't say what triggered this behaviour (I compiled some system stuff,
but nothing that I expect to affect Galeon), but it makes Galeon
practically useless since I now have effectively just one tab.

I remember having the same effect in some sessions via VNC, but back then
I thought it somehow was VNC's fault.
 

Has anybody come across this kind of problem?

Any help is appreciated.
