Touchpad Multitouch does not work

[juba0x00]

• My laptop touchpad supported multitouch gestures on windows, but not Linux.

Have you ever said to your wife that your mother cooked better?

If you really don’t want an answer, leave this in the title:

" It was working on windows"

I’m so sorry, I said “it was working on windows” to indicate that my touchpad supports multitouch, and it’s not a hardware issue.
I hate windows and I will not use it again, I’m using Linux for 2 years since I know it.

It may not be so much the touchpad driver but the window manager or desktop environment support for gestures and the ways to configure them.

I found this:

libinput - ArchWiki

the whole article, but especially the section 3.5 and the following

Then there is the option to use the synaptics touchpad driver instead of libinput:

Touchpad Synaptics - ArchWiki

I rarely use my touchpad and never cared about gestures, so this is all just theoretical “knowledge”.

[juba0x00]

I read the whole article trying what is recommended, I found Synaptics is deprecated and not supported.
libinput working properly only with two fingers, so any gestures software (touchegg, fusuma, libinput-gesutres, etc.) does not receive any swipe signal

[Nachlese]

I already said that my “knowledge” is only theoretical.
But:
again from the very start of this site

Touchpad Synaptics - ArchWiki

@juba0x00

I found Synaptics is deprecated and not supported.

That’s not what it says.

It says (the red box)

Warning: xf86-input-synaptics is no longer actively updated. If possible, use libinput. For some reasons why you might still prefer xf86-input-synaptics, see, e.g. [1] and [2].

That, to me, is not the same as: depreciated and not supported

But then there is the blue box right below that red box:

Note: If you want to configure touchpad via GNOME Settings, you need to use the libinput driver.[3]

Which means (to me) that there is no point in using synaptics - not when you are on Gnome, that is.

I have no solution or informed and tested advice to offer.
