Just a few precisations: 1) this bug applies to Feisty CD 5 too 2) this bug applies to some non-Acer laptops too (I need acer_acpi to get wireless working on my Fujitsu Siemens A1650G) 3) upgrading from Edgy to Feisty, I had trouble recompiling the module, because the "make" command didn't work no more, so I had to give the following commands:
make clean make acer_acpi.ko cp -v acer_acpi.ko /lib/modules/2.6.20-12-generic/extra/ mkdir cd /lib/modules/2.6.20-12-generic/extra cp -v acer_acpi.ko /lib/modules/2.6.20-12-generic/extra/ depmod -a modprobe acer_acpi -- No wireless on 64bit Acer laptops https://launchpad.net/bugs/60972 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
