Georg Klimm, I can see that after a long process you came to an old conclusion, or well known fact: in the new Xorg server, the server installs the mouse by default. Then, the mouse uses the xev infrastructure which causes the swapping. It is still blurry to me how it manages to get the penmount data and translate it. Nevertheless, the idea is that it gets some input from the penmount device and translates it into the mouse (relative) coordinates. As a result, clicking twice on the screen on the same spot will bring you always on a different place :)

What you can do is to remove the mouse_drv by moving the: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/mouse_drv.so to some different file name. This thread is about Ubuntu, but your Debian experience might shade some light on the solution.

Let us know...
