(Get the code!)
I also have an older S205 with an E-350.
With kernel 3.0, I just had do rmmod acer_wmi after system startup (and it really needed to load: after hibernation I had to modprobe acer_wmi and then rmmod to get wifi to work again).
Yesterday I upgraded to 12.04 and no combination of modprobing/rmmoding acer_wmi or ideapad-laptop got me wireless.
My S205 has an Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (I threw the crappy ralink away), and even with an external wifi stick I can't get access (seems that if one device is blocked, nm-applet treats it as if ALL are blocked).
In addition, my EFI setup is kind of manual, so the workaround from comment #80 doesn't even apply to me.
So to recap: the upgrade to 12.04 left my old 3.0 kernel also installed.
If I boot with that, I'm golden. If I boot with 3.2, nothing I tried could get me wireless.
Should I upload my acpidump, dmesg, etc too?
