X11 fails to start on Zotac box

I am trying to get X11 working on a Zotac box with a quad core Celeron
processor, ZBOX-CI323NANO with "Intel HD graphics" (no further info).

No dice. Starting xenodm from boot results in a hang with a blank
screen. Running startx after boot produces some output to stderr and
an Xorg log file entry. I am attaching both and the dmesg output.

I noticed the entry in the log file

***************************************************************

ces.

vices.

but I am not quite sure what to do about it.

Forgot to mention that I am running openbsd 6.6-current (as of 31 March 2020).
