- Ooops! Sorry for assuming that everyone uses some Debian based distro...
So, you just need to edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf (do keep a backup of the original file though), so that the relevant lines look like this,
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Corporation Mobile Integrated Graphics Controller"
Driver "i810"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
VideoRam 229376
EndSection
In all probability you'll only need to edit the "Driver" line. It might have been set to vesa etc, just change it to i810. Restart X or reboot. I guess you need not mess with any other line. Do tell me the results.

dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
This will allow you to reconfigure X11 and also choose the required driver for the 945 GM. The required driver happens to be i810, the default will probably be vesa, change it to i810 and you'll automatically have graphics accleration.
