[Etoys] A new experimental version of OLPC image for non-XOenvironments

[Bert Freudenberg]

This certainly is the "3 button mouse" VM setting (from the F2 menu).

For Etoys, having the halo available immediately is rather useful,  
whereas context menus are almost unused. So that is why this setting  
is used.
