Did I imagine this setting of is it hidden somewhere?
Ha, so there is indeed something missing in the settings? I've also looked through all the settings and searched for a way to configure the touchpad gestures at all. Couldn't find anything. Would be very happy to learn about how to do this on Wayland. (On X I've just used the nice program Touchégg and could configure it the way I liked, even on a per app basis.)

Questions about TUXEDO InfinityBook Pro 16 - Gen7 Max Performance Edition
I'm running Fedora (well Nobara specifically) with Wayland. However, you can get nice touch gestures on most any laptop with X11 using a tool like Touchégg if they are not already working. I've used tools like this for almost a decade to get nice multitouch gestures under X11 with great success.

Touch pad in Elementary OS
elementary OS uses touchegg to handle touchpad gestures, and you can configure it anyw ay you pleaase: https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg. The options available by default in elementary OS gestures are kinda rudimentary, so I also recommend https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche to more easily define them the exact way you like, and to also maybe even set-up custom gestures for different applications.

Touchpad Gestures and Hibernate option
If I'm not mistaken, you can only enable hibernation if you've set up a swap partition on your disk. As for the touchpad gestures, you might want to take a look at these - https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche

Wayland Is Pretty Good
Turns out that Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS has a library out of sync.[1] No Wayland use of Vulkan on LTS until mid-2024. Apparently fixed in Ubuntu 22.10.
Back to Xorg for now.

Is the AMD experience really that much better than Nvidia?
Why the "" earlier, then? Well, there's Wayland... *Almost everything works as it should, except for native WL apps running on vulkan. It's a known bug that's supposedly being worked on, but with no fix in sight. Vulkan apps running through Xwayland run fine, though. I usually stay on X11, so it doesn't really affect me.

Dell XPS 15 9520 and Ubuntu - A great match with some rough edges
Some Wayland apps were not working due to this issue, but there's a workaround. I set __EGL_VENDOR_LIBRARY_FILENAMES=/usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d/50_mesa.json in my /etc/environment and they run fine now.
