I just put together a desktop system using this CPU:
Intel Core i3-9100 Coffee Lake 4-Core 3.6 GHz (4.2 GHz Turbo)
LGA 1151 (300 Series) 65W BX80684I39100 Desktop Processor
Intel UHD Graphics 630
and this motherboard:
ASUS PRIME B360M-A LGA1151 (300 Series) DDR4 HDMI DVI VGA
M.2 mATX Motherboard
It has 8GB (2 x 4GB) of DDR4-2400 memory, using KCP424NS6/4 DIMMs.
I tried booting this USB image: OI-hipster-gui-20200504.usb .
I made no changes to the BIOS setup.
The BIOS setup runs, the OI loader runs, and it boots OI from the
flash memory stick. OI requests the language and reports that the
lightdm service has failed. I can log in on the console as jack
and log in remotely as jack.
The Xorg log (/var/log/Xorg.0.log) shows that the vesa driver has
failed. Errors are prefixed with EE:

The `out of range' error message comes from this code in the int10
sub-module:
#define CHECK_V_SEGMENT_RANGE(x) \
if (((x) << 4) < V_BIOS) { \
xf86DrvMsg(pInt->pScrn->scrnIndex, X_ERROR, \
"V_BIOS address 0x%lx out of range\n", \
(unsigned long)(x) << 4); \
return FALSE; \
}
Bool
xf86int10GetBiosSegment(xf86Int10InfoPtr pInt, void *base)
{
unsigned i;
int cs = ~0;
int segments[4];
segments[0] = MEM_RW(pInt, (0x10 << 2) + 2);
segments[1] = MEM_RW(pInt, (0x42 << 2) + 2);
segments[2] = V_BIOS >> 4;
segments[3] = ~0;
for (i = 0; segments[i] != ~0; i++) {
unsigned char *vbiosMem;
cs = segments[i];
CHECK_V_SEGMENT_RANGE(cs);
vbiosMem = (unsigned char *) base + (cs << 4);
if (int10_check_bios(pInt->pScrn->scrnIndex, cs, vbiosMem)) {
break;
}
}
if (segments[i] == ~0) {
xf86DrvMsg(pInt->pScrn->scrnIndex, X_ERROR, "No V_BIOS found\n");
return FALSE;
}
xf86DrvMsg(pInt->pScrn->scrnIndex, X_INFO, "Primary V_BIOS segment is: 0x%lx\n",
(unsigned long) cs);
pInt->BIOSseg = cs;
return TRUE;
}
I assume that the error stems from a calculation error in that
sub-module, as it's unlikely there's actually an error in the video
device. Other people must have encountered the same error, but may
have not seen the Xorg log file.
