Same problem with an Acer Aspire 5315, and the patch is working changing 5720
to 5315.

I also found that 5315 and 5720 have the same BIOS. I am not sure, but the
laptops using the same BIOS must have the same problem. I spent some time
reading news on the Acer website, and according to Acer, here is the list of
laptops sharing the same BIOSes:

Same BIOS as Acer Aspire 5720: Aspire 5315, Aspire 5320, Aspire 5715, Aspire
5720, Aspire 7320, Aspire 7720, eMachines E510.

Same BIOS as Acer Aspire 5710: Aspire 5310, Aspire 5710.

These informations are taken from the readme in the BIOS update archives,
available on acer.com.

It is not clearly said in the readme, but G and/or Z at the end of the name
seem to have no influence on the BIOS used. Of course, it can make a difference
in the DMI_PRODUCT_NAME (I have no idea about that).

Whatever, you can safely add a patch for the 5315.
