I've never done Linux development before. If someone tells me which project of Regolith this is in I'd be apt to try to fix it myself
Hi @TimVanDyke , sorry it's not clear to me if the issue is screen tearing or that your config isn't loading as expected. Here is the code that looks for a user-staged picom config file and loads it, or the default if doesn't exist: https://github.com/regolith-linux/regolith-compositor-picom-glx/blob/master/init#L12 Does that provide any help?
The issue is neither config is loading on boot.
I konw this is the case because when I kill Picom and run it pointing to a config it fixes my screen tearing.
When I changed the default regolith config AND when I tried overriding it in $home/.config/regolith/picom/config
it doesn't load the config. I will take a look at that link thank you
Looking closer I see that I have a "residual config" from compton:
hippo@hippo-XPS-15-9570:~$ sudo apt list | grep "regolith-compositor"

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
I'll purge that and reboot real quick
Post reboot here is what's installed:

My screen is currently tearing.
~/.config/regolith3/picom/config
exists.
pkill picom
had tab autocomplete on picom and caused my screen to flash so picom was clearly running
Now running
picom --config $HOME/.config/regolith3/picom/config
fixes my screen tearing
This leads me to believe that it isn't loading the config correctly.
Running that script you linked is working, what calls that?
I modified it and added it to my scripts directory (just added print output) and it is working as I'd expect and loading the config:
cat picom-restart
#!/bin/bash
compositor_PID=$(pidof picom)
while [ ! -z "$compositor_PID" ]; do
echo "Killing Picom"
kill $compositor_PID
sleep .1
compositor_PID=$(pidof picom)
done
echo "Picom Killed"
if [[ -f "$HOME/.config/regolith3/picom/config" ]]; then
echo "starting with home directory thing"
/usr/bin/picom --config "$HOME/.config/regolith3/picom/config" --daemon
else
echo "starting with else path"
CONFIG_PATH=$(xrescat regolith.compositor.picom.config /etc/regolith/picom/config)
/usr/bin/picom --config "$CONFIG_PATH" --daemon
fi
output:
picom-restart
Killing Picom
Picom Killed
starting with home directory thing
It's regolith-i3-compositor
, and it doesn't look like your grep would yield if that package is installed. It should have been pulled in as a "soft" dependency when regolith-i3-root-config
was installed (itself a hard dependency from the root session package, regolith-session-flashback
.)
I do have both of those installed:

hippo@hippo-XPS-15-9570:~$
Not sure why regolith-i3-compositor
partial wouldn't be executing the picom init script. Does this return something for you? xrescat wm.program.compositor
I get no output from that:
hippo@hippo-XPS-15-9570:~$ xrescat wm.program.compositor
hippo@hippo-XPS-15-9570:~$
What should the output be?
For what it's worth I upgraded from Regolith 2 and have had screen tearing for a long time, possibly even during the regolith 2 days.
This doesn't return anything either (and I wouldn't expect it to)
hippo@hippo-XPS-15-9570:~$ xrescat i3-wm.program.compositor
hippo@hippo-XPS-15-9570:~$
What should the output be?
Empty means "default" in this case, which is what I would expect. If you had set that to some other path, that would explain why the i3 isn't loading the compositor for you, but since you didn't set it, it's not the cause.
Describe the bug Screen tearing despite updating the picom config to enable V sync (this fixes it see below)
These config changes only actually load after running
I tried updating
/etc/regolith/picom/config
and also~/.config/regolith3/picom/config
running picom manually after boot and pointing to my config file is fixing my issue and is my workaround for now.
To Reproduce use the default picom settings, and try to override them according to the docs here: https://regolith-desktop.com/docs/howtos/customize-compositor/
I test screen tearing with this video. It's immediately apparent if it's broken or fixed while viewing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfL_JkcEFbE
