I just found out the same after two hours of chasing logs and reading
the platform-driver-x86 list :D
In short: I can confirm the bug on Maverick and Natty.
As it has been mentioned, "acer_wmi" should be blacklisted and
"ideapad_acpi" should be added to /etc/modules instead. Beware:
"ideapad_acpi" is a fairly recent module (August), it is included in
Natty's -36 kernel but I don't know about maverick's -35!
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
** Summary changed:
- acer_wmi is blocking wirless on Ideapad S12
+ acer_wmi is blocking wireless on Ideapad S12
