No, this only change only effects g45 chips, which would have been
incorrectly handling the hardware vblank counter.  It will have no
impact on 945.  I'm trying to pull changes that are definite wins from
my Intel branch right now.  I don't think that I have seen the symptoms
that you describe on my 945, except when it is resuming from suspend.  I
do only run gnome on it though, it is far too slow to do kde as well...
I'm trying to fix up the interrupt handling in a less invasive way than
I did previously, but even that should only effect 965+ with msi
enabled.
