Here are the specs for the laptop. It is a Dell XPS 14Z. It is the model with the i5 processor which has on-board Intel HD 3000 Grapics (sandy bridge) rather than an additional nvidia chip.
Specs are:
XPS 14z
2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i5-2450M processor (2.50 GHz with Turbo Boost 2.0 up to 3.10 GHz)
Intel® HD Graphics 3000
6GB Dual Channel DDR3 1333MHz
8X Slot Load CD/DVD Burner (Dual Layer DVD+/-R Drive)
Intel© Centrino© Advanced-N 6230 & Bluetooth 3.0
8-Cell (58 WHr) Battery
Waves Maxx Audio 3
Additional Software
500GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive
14.0" HD (720p) Truelife WLED Display with 1.3MP HD Webcam (max resolution is 1366x728)
Also, no problem on the delay of posts. I am still ironing out some other small issues in my Mint installation. I just wanted to get XBMC going properly before my vacation. Thanks for the help with this.

I looked at the guide that you mentioned, but it appears to be specific to nvidia cards, and on the laptop I am working with the Intel HD 3000 (sandy bridge) chipset.
Thanks.
