Ok, at least this mystery is solved: I removed xf86-video-intel and now X is starting again (haven't tried with nomodeset though, I am currently on a custom 4.20 where nomodeset is not required).
I did update and I also have the Intel card which requires the i915 kernel module. It all works seamlessly.
Might be some differences in the actual CPU model?
Do you see anything in the "dmesg" when trying to load the kernel module itself?
mvarlese@localhost:~> sudo lsmod |grep i915 i915 2158592 28 i2c_algo_bit 16384 1 i915 drm_kms_helper 204800 5 i915 drm 499712 16 drm_kms_helper,i915 video 49152 3 dell_wmi,dell_laptop,i915
mine looks like this: Boreas:~ # lsmod |grep i915 i915 2158592 0 i2c_algo_bit 16384 1 i915 drm_kms_helper 204800 1 i915 drm 499712 2 drm_kms_helper,i915 video 49152 3 dell_wmi,dell_laptop,i915
So not sure why X is even trying to load the kernel module at all?
There is nothing in the log, because Xorg is started as an unprivileged user and thus cannot load kernel modules.
Nevertheless, I am not sure if this is the right track, as I only got this far because I appended 'nomodeset' to the boot command line. Maybe it is messing with the driver?

I'am writing this from a DELL XPS 15 9570, which uses the same barebone as the Precision 5530. This works using the i915 driver.
