Bug Description
After I upgraded to ubuntu 17.04, touchegg (a program that translates multitouch touchpad gestures to actions) will not recognize three and four finger multitouch gestures from my elantech touchpad. I think this is related to the upgrade of xserver-
Touchpad Elantech ID ETD0108
$ cat /proc/bus/
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=000e Version=0000

Computer Asus TP500L
Ubuntu 17.04
xserver-
What I expected:
touchegg multitouch three and four fingers scroll/swipe to work as before the upgrade
What happened:
Three and four fingers are not recognized. Nothing happens (no errors).
