    Is there a trick to getting gesture scrolling (two finger on touchpad) working for the Unity Editor on Linux or should it simply work like on windows or mac? I run Fedora 32 with KDE, all other apps, including gnome apps work as expected with gestures. Scrolling with the scrollbars works, but when you're used to gestures, going back to scrollbars is a drag.

    Documenting what I've found so far, hoping it will help someone someday :)
    Same HW - Ubuntu 18.04 works in both KDE and Gnome in 2019.4.9f1 and 2020.1.4f1.
    Fedora works in Gnome, but not in KDE. A USB mouse scroll wheel also does not work.
    This affects the Editor only, Hub works great.

    unset GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS
    while on other distros setting it to 0 or 1 does the trick, it looks like on Fedora things only work if you unset that variable.
