        - How to get in contact with Brecht if I succeed ?
Brecht added GM45 support to the driver, otherwise I'm still maintaining it.
I'm busying myself with a little python project at the moment, but I still scan this mailing list...
In the end, very little code was inserted for the GM45 to succeed. A G4x family was added in the process. If you're lucky, it could work if you just add your GS45 to this family: 
http://dev.haiku-os.org/browser/haiku/trunk/headers/private/graphics/intel_extreme/intel_extreme.h#L45

You'll need to create macro's for the GS45 here:
http://dev.haiku-os.org/browser/haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/kernel/drivers/graphics/intel_extreme/driver.cpp#L57
http://dev.haiku-os.org/browser/haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/kernel/busses/agp_gart/intel_gart.cpp#L72
Don't forget to build the intel agp_gart driver in addition to the intel_extreme kerner driver and accelerant: 
jam -q \<agp_gart\>intel

Good luck!
Brecht


Thank for all the advises.
I will try it and give you my feedback.
