I am.

In particular, I'm using an 82945G-based terminal with the VESA
driver.  It works well, but is not optimal (my monitor supports an 8:5
aspect ratio, incompatible with the offered VESA modes).  I'm slowly
putting together a native driver (really, updating the i810 driver)
for it, but I haven't touched it in a couple of weeks now.

I do not believe that the i960 is uses the GMA950, however; I think it
uses a successor but they are probably largely compatible.
