Gestures require a lot more push with Ubuntu 22.04/GNOME 42 #38

Describe the bug

I've noticed that the gestures are a lot harder to activate with Ubuntu 22.04. Previously, a small push would be all that was needed to switch workspaces or show the activity view. Now it requires either a really big swipe or a fast one to switch workspaces and I frequently have to try multiple times to get the activities view to show. Otherwise, I just see the bump effect.

Expected behaviour

Gestures should be 1:1 like in Wayland, or at least activate with less movement.

Actual behaviour

Gestures are difficult to activate.

Logs

If required, include logs of the bug:

$ journalctl -f -o cat /usr/bin/gnome-shell

Attach Touchégg configuration, placed at ~/.config/touchegg/touchegg.conf, if you consider it relevant.

Your environment

Hi Sean,

Thanks for the bug report.

This is usually caused by a mismatch between the libinput present in your system and the version Touchégg was compiled against: https://github.com/JoseExposito/gnome-shell-extension-x11gestures/issues/14

What is your libinput version? And how did you install Touchégg?

The PPA package should have been compiled against the correct version of libinput, in case you installed it using a different method.

Ah, perfect. Yes, I had installed with the release .deb instead of the PPA. Using the PPA version instead resolves the issue.

Sorry for the noise and thanks for the prompt response!
