This seems to work fine here on i945GM with 2.6.24 and Xserver/driver
from unstable. Could you upgrade to unstable and see whether it helps?
Or could you try building the latest driver (2.2.0.90) for testing?
There's a howto for building the latest git at
http://bgoglin.livejournal.com/10936.html. You might want to try with
xf86-video-intel-2.2-branch. If you need help, let me know.

Yes, that's expected, the DRM is currently unable to shared a board
between multiple sessions.
