In Portal 2 when I start the co-op mode I can't get past the gesture test.
It shows me the prompt that tells me I have to press Q in order to gesture, but when I press the key all I see on screen is a red circle with a slash through it. I checked my backpack and sure enough it doesn't have any gesture. Is that what the symbol signifies? Do I need to unlock a gesture in singleplayer mode first to play co-op?

I'm not sure what the red circle would indicate, but it took me a minute to figure out that holding down the gesture key opens a radial menu with icons around the perimeter. (It took a minute at first because there's only one icon at the beginning... not much of a circle) Moving the mouse towards the icon (in this case, up) while holding the key down and then letting go of the gesture key executes the gesture.
