Here is what I get when I execute 'picom': [ 03/01/20 15:24:08.887 parse_config_libconfig WARN ] Option no-dock-shadow is deprecated, and will be removed. Please use the wintype option shadow of dock instead. [ 03/01/20 15:24:08.887 parse_config_libconfig WARN ] vsync option will take a boolean from now on. "none" is interpreted as "false" for compatibility, but this will stop working soon [ 03/01/20 15:24:08.887 parse_config_libconfig WARN ] glx-swap-method has been deprecated since v6, your setting "undefined" should be removed. [ 03/01/20 15:24:08.887 parse_config_libconfig WARN ] "clear-shadow" is removed as an option, and is always enabled now. Consider removing it from your config file [ 03/01/20 15:24:08.887 parse_config_libconfig WARN ] "paint-on-overlay" has been removed as an option, and is enabled whenever possible And 'compton': [ 03/01/20 15:42:33.943 parse_config_libconfig WARN ] Option no-dock-shadow is deprecated, and will be removed.

This command to check what composite manager is running shows no output: inxi -Gxx | grep compositor I also have this line in my i3 config file: # picom exec_always --no-startup-id picom --config ~/.config/picom/picom.conf I'm not sure what they are asking me to do here as the compton command mentions that 'compton' has no been renamed to 'picom', so I thought I would just have to change the .conf file name etc. but this did not work.
