Could you provide some informations on your hardware? Like the first couple of
rows of "dmesg" or specifially details about your hardware?

i915kms in its recent incarnation doe not support most recent iGPUs as found in
Broadwell, Braswell and Skylake (that is roughly now 1 1/2 years back in time).
Haswell is initially supported but seems to have still trouble. The codebase is
Linux kernel 3.8 - compared to upcoming Linux 4.6 and its real nice support.

A nice entry point for investigating is

Have a look.
