That really sounds like broken hardware. While tslib can probably apply
filters to make it usable, it shouldn't be that bad. ts_calibrate takes 
input
without filters. If you can't use that, your device is broken.

Seriously, coordinates may be inverted, but if you can't "Tap", buy a 
new
device.

This is a 4 years old version of tslib, that doesn't include the "iir" 
filter for example, so there's
some inconsistency in your report. And I can't give any more detailed 
help on this version.
Why not update?

thanks
