OK, I just tested with Edubuntu 12.04 out of a USB key. The good news:
out of the box, without any configuration tweaking, I can connect to the
wireless network.
Unfortunately the wireless indicator led that was functional until
kernel 2.6.38-4 is dead. Observed behavior: led is off. Expected

thanks for the hint, Eric. I just finished the last exam today. Have a
couple of things to catch up in the next days, and will probably be able
to test next week. Is it OK if I test with the newly released 12.04?

Yuv, you could try the latest daily live ISO on a CD or with a USB disk
in case a reboot is safe.

Yuv, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. This
bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it

Hi Christopher:
I am still running on the workaround. This is a production-critical machine
and I can not run experiments on it until early May. I plan an upgrade to
Oneiric in May if the tests on my desktop do not reveal a show stopper. I will
do the upstream kernel tests then. In the
I think apport-collect did not work. I know this is not the right place
to report that bug, but I have really no time to do more than typing a
couple of lines (I have exams in two weeks). Sorry for dumping it here:

Thanks for the hint, Wladimir. I confirm that after blackisting
acer_wmi (additionally to the still blacklisted brcm80211) the Fn+F3
key combination to turn the wireless module on and off works. I have
not done any further detailed testing, the laptop seems to be working as
expected.

Thank you for confirming, Brad. Can you point me to the source code
repository and to the area of the code where this may lay so that I can
look at a diff and maybe help fix this bug? or if there is anything
else I can do, please let me know.

Now I can use the wireless network again, but the system key to toggle
it on and off (Fn+F3) does not work, and I see this error in dmesg:
