An update over my previous comment.
I edited xorg.conf and set explicitly for the intel driver to use UXA acceleration (it doesn't use it automatically). That way I am able to boot to a 2.6.28 kernel and use my desktop. There are some problems but X is up and running and this is generally considered as a good thing!

Sorry I hadn't tried this earlier since it is mentioned in the comments above, but I was somewhat confused by the intel driver's documentation as the man page (up to version 2.6.1) doesn't include UXA as a possible option to AccelMethod.
