Martin, I am running happily a 32-bit kernel 3.16-rc*all on i915 (Asus 
EeePC)
However: from your postings I still have no idea what Intel video 
chipset is in your Acer.
Try to add "nomodeset=y" to your kernel's cmdline to verify that it can 
boot. You have many kobject messages which are hiding what is 
happening... And please submit at least full dmesg output and "lspci 
-nn" ;-)
