It now appears Mir can support your system just fine (unity-system-compositor.log):

[2016-09-27 13:48:33.471796] GLRenderer: GL vendor: Intel Open Source Technology Center
[2016-09-27 13:48:33.471847] GLRenderer: GL renderer: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM
[2016-09-27 13:48:33.471882] GLRenderer: GL version: OpenGL ES 2.0 Mesa 12.0.3
[2016-09-27 13:48:33.471922] GLRenderer: GLSL version: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 1.0.16

However the above segfaults in unity8-dash and also:

[2016-09-27:13:32:42.951] QEGLPlatformContext: eglSwapBuffers failed: 3000

both suggest that Qt/Unity8 has trouble supporting your graphics chip. Looks like we will need to get hold of a Core 2 Duo system to test...
