That's ok. The point of the error code is to reduce the combinatorial explosion of possible configurations compositors have to test in order to get a working configuration, but they're still expected to do (if necessary) many atomic tests in series, especially when modesets are involved. If the first reported error changes, it should still eventually reach a working configuration, even if it may take more or less time than before. - Xaver
