(Get the code!)
Actually, the fix is quite easy: on my machine I solved the problem by just:
- adding "acer_acpi" to /etc/initramfs-
- calling "sudo update-initramfs -k "kernel-version" -u
- adding in /etc/modprobe.d a file "acer_acpi" containing only one line:
"options acer_acpi wireless=1"
So, I would suggest just adding that line to "modules" and that file in "modprobe.d". However, I'm not sure it's a good general fix, since probably it would be good that acer_acpi loaded only on computers needing it, and I absolutely don't know how it's done.
However, the fix suggested me that probably the problem is not in linux kernel's package, but (also?) in initramfs-tools, so I'm adding this bug to it.
