I'm also having issues with my intel gfx card on 3 laptops (Dell Latitude D610, MSI Wind and Acer ONE netbooks). When you hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 you get a VT but when you hit Alt+F7 you don't get the X (KDE 4.2 stable in my case) session back. This happens on all 3 laptops with Intel gfx card and latest updates :(

EXA acceleration, no UXA (can't get it to work properly: when you log out from KDE 4.2 stable it just hangs there with a black screen without fully logging out).

You should really use UXA and KMS. The "hang" on logout is because kdm tries to resurrect the X server and reuse it for the next login, which is a bad idea as far as I have heard. Solve it by editing /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc and adding TerminateServer=true to a [X-*-Core] section, then restart kdm. UXA and KMS should work fine then, and VT switching is completely stable with that.
