    Hmm, this sounds like it could be solved by tweaking the systemd unit file for libinput-gestures. It’s better not to have the service wait a set amount of time (what if that amount of time isn’t enough?), but to depend on the this it is supposed to start after. My guess is you’ll need to do do the following:

    1. Find the name of the service that starts your compositor.

    2. In libinput-gestures.service, add a line under the [Unit] heading that starts with Wants= and then has the name of the compositor service.

    I can’t guarantee that’ll address your issue, but it might help.
