I installed SL8 on another hp laptop & went for the kde 64bit option this time rather than corecdx.
A few observations & issues:
I installed as normal, followed the wiki on things to do after a fresh install, I've done this many times without problems.
After doing "equo upgrade" my computer name was back to localhost after a reboot. I've changed that back but I don;t know why that happened.
Used kernel-switcher to get the latest kernel.
I seem to be missing some libraries:

Available OpenGL implementations:

[2] nvidia
[3] xorg-x11 *
xorg-x11 is the only way to get opengl to work. Also, this laptop has an intel & radeon card, why does it seem to want nvidia libraries, am I missing something obvious?
Thanks
