Bug Description

After upgrading to Oneiric a four finger tap on the Apple Magic Trackpad no longer brings up the Unity Dash. Other features like two finger vert/horiz scroll still work, as well as three finger window resizing (with the extra handles to manipulate the window).

The dash is till functional using other means outside of the trackpad to bring it up.

I've filed this bug against the unity package, I was not sure if this should be filed against Unity itself, or uTouch.
