I have a Dell Latitude D620 with Intel 945GM (and therefore, a GMA950 video chip). I have been able to get Aero Glass to work with the laptop out of the dock using the Lakeport WDDM drivers, but when docked, I am unable to get ANY display (much less Aero) on the external monitor. I've had to go back to the non-WDDM drivers which are specific for the 945GM. Has anyone been able to get Aero Glass to work on an external display with a docked laptop on a 945GM chipset? I suspect that the GMA950 drivers just haven't matured enough to support multiple monitors and/or docked/undocked situations yet. Any input?
TIA.

Aero Glass on Intel 945GM (GMA950)
To clarify. This is Beta 2, 5384.4. Same deal on 5365 though.

FYI: I have the same setup. When I contacted Intel support, their response was: The Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset does not have specific drivers nor support for Microsoft* Windows* Vista
