Wayland and gestures

Whenever I use Wayland in gnome, sometimes the gesture for my laptop trackpad works and sometimes it doesn’t. The main reason I like using wayland is simply for the gestures.

This seems to be a bug, even though the Wayland session is selected in the login-screen, it defaults to X11 after a reboot (even though the login-screen shows Wayland as selected still). It’s been there for a few months but I don’t know exactly how to make a bug report for this.

Here’s the solution to the above:
/etc/gdm/custom.conf

[daemon]
XorgEnable=false
PreferredDisplayServer=wayland

If I wanted to also switch to x11 could I change XorgEnable= to true? This would still enable wayland to be the preferred display server.
