On my Acer Aspire E-573, I am able to use basic touchpad features like two-finger scrolling, 2-finger right click and 3-finger middle click. But these work only when the touchpad is configured as "Basic" in the BIOS.
But the pinch-to-zoom feature is not working, which I am guessing depends on the "Advanced" mode of Touchpad (Don't have Windows 8/10 so can't confirm that).
Has anybody been able to use these features with an Elantech Touchpad on Linux x64? I tried Ubuntu 14.04.3 and 15.10, without any success as well.

Here's a related question I asked a few weeks ago, in which I was able to activate the Touchpad only after configuring the Touchpad in "Basic" mode from the BIOS.
