Hello,
I am using a laptop clevo W950JU with intel i5-6200U processor.

If I run jessie with the kernel 4.2.0-0.bpo.1-amd64  it works fine,
but when I use the kernel 4.3.0-0.bpo.1-amd64  X11 fails :

This would appear to be the issue. The intel driver doesn't recognise your chipset, so refuses to load. As you have no other suitable drivers, the server fails to start.

So, my guess would be that your chipset is either too new, or too old. The output of lspci ("Intel Corporation Device 1916") suggests to me that it's too new (that looks like a placeholder name rather than a real name). So, in that case, try fetching the latest xserver-xorg-video-intel from unstable and see if that helps.

lspci -v | grep VGA
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 1916 (rev 07) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

I have not found anything on google that has to do with this problem.
anyone know how to solve the problem ?

TIA
