I have the same (or very similar) problem on a fresh 16.04 install (same
problem on 15.10 upgraded to 16.04, but I reinstalled to be sure).
Dell Latitude E4300
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
Subsystem: Dell Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller
Kernel driver in use: i915
Kernel modules: i915
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
Subsystem: Dell Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller
If I login with unity 8, I just get a black screen. Interestingly,
sometimes I get a partially rendered desktop - however, I cannot get the
launcher to work, switching windows doesn't work, and in general
interacting with it is impossible. Another odd thing is that if I do
this, after I login on lightdm, I am presented a different login screen
- the password text field isn't properly aligned either which is odd.

Bug description:
This bug Makes the pc UNUSABLE
when I try to launch Unity 8 and Mir, after writing the password on the login
(in the image attached) the bar to enter the password disappears and my
computer screen stays stuck without them let me do anything. the connection
begins to separate and reattach alone and I can only move the cursor. it makes
the computer unusable and I am forced to restart forced to then enter into
Unity 7. represented in the screenshot is the lock status after entering the
password.
Version: unity8.12+16.04.201604.01.1
