This comment on 193970 seems to imply that Acer models other than the Aspire
One may be affected by 319825.  It might be worth checking whether similar
problems with various wireless drivers might be caused by this Acer-specific
issue.  This may be one of the reasons why 193970 is so confused, because
there are multiple root causes present.

Leann: maybe the new hardware data search API would help?
