945GME chipsets are embedded chipsets, not netbook chipsets. They exist now, but the first chipset made specifically for netbooks was 945GSE. 945GME came earlier, has support for more and faster memory, dual channel, among other things. Though those two chipsets do seem to share the device ID, so a driver that works for once should work for the other.
