Maybe this, along with the fact that tslib is recommended over
server-xorg-input-evdev should be mentioned in the documentation. That
way others wont try to do the same thing I did, or get confused by the
existance of the swap_xy parameter. Also, if swap_xy is historical than
maybe it should be deprecated, and documented as such.
