[ODE] Particles again, no torque on collide

[Jacob Ole Juul Kolding]

ok I added dContactApprox1 and that does solves the torque problem, but now
how ever the forward motion will stop after first impact where they will
bounce up and down on that spot.

I tried changing mu. At zero it behaves as before dContactApprox1. and any
value above zero results in bouncing on the spot.

Any ideas?
