Thanks Timo,

For any poor soul who reads this looking for an answer on how to get
i915 working on 16.04, here you go:

apt-get update 
apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-16.04

Then:
sudo vi /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.alpha_support=1"
sudo update-grub

reboot

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
-- This will re-install the entire world. It takes forever.

reboot

add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa 
apt-get update 
apt-get upgrade

:pray:
