Im sorry guys. I dunno if anyone's willing to help me and I'm just wasting my time here. But I've been poking around on the internet for days trying to find a way to get my Synaptics touchpad (Acer Aspire One D255) to work. I've been using touchegg (the GUI tool) to troubleshoot. I could only get two finger scrolling to work (from Ubuntu settings). Other gestures (2 fingers), like "pinch-to-zoom", "Tap", "Flick" etc. just do not work. I don't know what to do to fix it. There is support on Windows for these gestures. I'm asking for someone to please set aside some time to help me.

Thanks.

You need to disable two and three finger gestures of Ubuntu to make the touchegg gestures work. For detailed instructions consult the Ubuntu Wiki Multitouch.

The touchegg FAQ provides the following as a fast and easy solution:

You can simply execute this commands to allow Touchégg to use this gestures:

 synclient TapButton2=0
 synclient TapButton3=0
 synclient ClickFinger2=0
 synclient ClickFinger3=0
 synclient HorizTwoFingerScroll=0
 synclient VertTwoFingerScroll=0
