I am having problems as well. I have configured my eGalax touchscreen in
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/50-eGalax.fdi as follows:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? !-- -*- SGML -*- --
deviceinfo version=0.2
device
match key=info.product contains=eGalax
match
Regarding 'swapy' being treated as a bool by HAL, I quote the
x11-input.fdi file from freedesktop.org:
You MUST specify all options as strings, otherwise the server will
ignore them.
Obviously, if HAL is treating our string as a bool, this option will
never work. Right?

Hi ramaddan,
Thanks for including the attached files. Could you also include your
/var/log/Xorg.0.log (or Xorg.0.log.old) from after reproducing the issue?

Hi,
I would like to pass you the Xorg log file, but since I upgraded to
Karmic, I've been having no end of trouble with my touchscreen.
Most of the time, when I boot into Ubuntu, my touchscreen does not even
really respond, and once in a while it works normally, but most of the
time is doesn't.

These options:
merge key=input.x11_options.swapx type=string0/merge
merge key=input.x11_options.swapy type=string0/merge
Are not reliable though, as they seem to not work many times, so
probably need to be fixed too.
