Anyone have the GMA950, and is experiencing playable conditions? I get the black screen, and whole system lags, but game doesn't actually start.
Is there hope or does my card just suck. A lot.

All intel on-board chipsets are "not recommendable" so far. As you can read in many threads complaining about invisible heightfield maps (outside hills). They seem to not support some specific OpenGL features.

as far as i understand, they don't even support ogl2 or even 1.5 if i'm not wrong

I have the same Intel GMA 950 graphics card (running on a mac book, tiger), but I don't the same graphic problems. Though I have extremely low fps in Hydlaa and some trouble with doors (like Jayose and Laanx temple).
You can try out many different graphics settings, until you have something that works.

With a GMA X4500 and a 1.4 GHz Core 2 Duo ULV I can play Planeshift with Ultra High Details (with the exception of 'Particles' which are set on 'Medium') and fixed distance view set on maximum.
Distro: gentoo amd64
xorg-server: 1.7.6
xf86-video-intel: 2.10.902 (2.11 RC2)
libdrm: 2.4.19
kernel: linux-2.6.33.1-linuxdna (ICC)
mesa: 7.8_rc1
Planeshift and crystalspace compiled from loux's overlay with maxoptimization use flag.
I do know nothing about GMA950, but X4500 really isn't a very good card.
