Two figure pinch and rotation do not work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I cannot get pinch and rotation work on a rmbp.Two finger moves are always 
recoganized as Drag, 3 figure pinch seems to work. Rotation is never recognized 
no matter how many figures I use. I am using gentoo and installed evemu-1.0.11, 
frame-2.5.0, grail-3.1.0 and geis-2.2.16 myself. I wonder if this is because 
some mismatch between various versions of software, is there a recommended 
version of these pieces of software?

You can try with the last version of Touchégg for Ubuntu Quantal and libgeis 
2.0.1, the version used for this release:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/touchegg

I have the same issue. It looks like libgeis does not handle "delayed" gesture 
detection as it should. Pinch and Rotate are always reported as Drag first on 
my touchscreen (for about 5-10 events) before grail adds the correct event to 
the list. At this time geis has already set the event type to drag.

I use this on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 and it is working great, except Pinch, Zoom 
and double tap. It does not mater if I set it to 2, 3, or 4 finger events, 
Pinch and Zoom will always make Drag events (Direction depending on what finger 
was registered first). Double tap will just execute two time single tab. 

Also, is there any way to have Touchegg as primary? Gnome has added a few touch 
screen events for the shell and some of the GTK apps, this overwrites touchegg 
in most cases. I would like, for consistency, to have touchegg either as 
primary or somehow disable whatever is handling things in Gnome 3?

Exactly the same behavior as #3. Arch Linux in both KDE and GNOME.

Similar to the problem in #1. Also running Gentoo, and compiled geis-2.2.17 and 
touchegg-1.1.1 from source.

Two finger drag works well.

Two finger pinch occasionally works. Well, it did at first, not any more.

Three finger pinch works fairly consistently but the direction is always 
“out”, no matter how one pinches.
