[PATCH 0/1] [Jaunty] LP#319825 -- Acer Aspire One wireless

Currently by default wireless will not work on Acer Aspire One systems
until you rmmod the acer-wmi modules.  It turns out that these systems have
broken WMI interfaces and we need to ignore the rfkill support for them.
The following email contains a patch to do just that.  This patch has
been tested by users with both the flash and hard-driver versions of this
machine (which have different dmidecode information).  I have also been
in discussions with the upstream maintainer and pushed him this same patch.

Proposing for Jaunty.
