I have a Synaptics Touchpad on my Dell XPS 14z and I was wondering if there was any way I could enable some gestures besides two-finger scrolling.
Are there any special drivers i need?
I've read somewhere that 12.04 has had some issues with multitouch gestures but I'm not exactly sure.
If there is a way, could someone give me instructions on how to enable (or get) these features?
I found some evidence that touchegg may not work with 12.04
