Well, I had a go at the WIKI method and this time it worked! Instead of a cheapo 8gb usb stick I used a cruzer 16gb stick. Loaded OSX from stick, downloaded 10.6.7 combo update from Apple site, applied updates - before rebooting installed Chameleon and EDP 1.8. System for D620 Intel; machine rebooted as it should, with full QE and VLC - mkv files play smoothly once again. System Profiler now correctly identifies the Graphics/Display as GMA 950!
One step I also took was to erase with writing zeroes to each drive.
Life is good!

I tried reinstalling EDP 1.8, but still nothing
Ditto...

boot into bios and check first part of bios drop down menu, it lists all your hardware. then build edp according to your graphics (intel or nvidia)
Yes, it says GMA945 so I installed Intel. Not sure what has gone wrong...

I too am experiencing issues with QE and my D620 / Core 2 Duo 2Ghz / Dell A10 Bios / Chameleon 2 RC5 from the newest Extra.ZIP / 3gb DDR RAM / SL 10ud.;6.7).Although I'm certain it's GMA 950 based onboard video, system profiler says it's an nVidia graphics card. Sorta odd... Animation is occasionally choppy, VLC is black screen video with audio, and MKV files are unwatchable full screen. My previous installation was Leppy's w SL 10.6.2, and none of the aforementioned issues existed. Perhaps I should use the old video kexts, or would there be version mismatches?

I chose:
Model selected: D820-nvidia
Mouse/Keyboard driver: 1
Battery driver: AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext
Install NullCPUPowerManagement: n
Install SleepEnabler:
Emulated speedstep: y
Also added the Trackpad PrefPane 32-bit
It appears that everything works coming back from sleep except for tap=click on the trackpad. The physical buttons do work after sleep, so it's mostly an inconvenience borne out of usage habits. Has anyone else experienced that anomaly or found a way around it?
