In this case I'm just reporting that others had it and request some more info on the error, sorry, I don't even use Go

Neither of the issues you mention have any helpful information.

I don't see any action that we can take here.

My proposal was printing "Something failed: x was not found" instead of no extra information

As far as I can tell that error can't tell you anything more useful, that function is only called once and always with a depth of 32. So, if you see that error, it means it can't find a visual id with depth 32 and the expected color masks.
The only way to find out why would be to look at the output of xdpyinfo. Making the error include a list of all visual ids is unreasonable, there tends to be a lot of them (I have 600).

Timed out in state WaitingForInfo. Closing.

(I am just a bot, though. Please speak up if this is a mistake or you have the requested information.)
