Created attachment 67622 [details] Decompiled DSDT table acer_wmi kernel module is prevent of correct work of Acer Aspire one 721-148ss. For example if this kernel module is loaded it's not possible to enable WiFi. First bugreport here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/791373 Blacklisting of acer_wmi solve this problem. So probably acer_wmi is doesn't support of Acer AO 721 (or have support, but this support is buggy). I also want to note, with 2.6.35 kernel I have only one problem with acer_wmi https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/683979 (it's not my bugreport, but I have exactly same problem with 2.6.35 kernel on Acer AO 721). Decompiled DSDT table of Acer Aspire one 721-148ss attached.
This an acer_wmi issue rather than an ACPI issue. moving the platform drivers category.

When should we use email bug not bugzilla? I usually assume that nobody's looking at the bugzilla reports :( I think this one was originally miscategorised - nobody had done anything with it in 2-3 weeks.

So, I am wrong? When should we use email bug not bugzilla? Thank's Joey Lee
Maybe duplicate of this bugreport: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41562
Could you please give me what version for issue kernel? Does 2.6.37 kernel have problem?

Does 2.6.37 kernel have problem? On the bug, you said the 2.6.35 kernel works fine, but you didn't say which kernel have problem. Thank's a lot! Joey Lee
I didn't try 2.6.37. 2.6.38 have this problem. Kubuntu 11.04.
Assume you use function key to enable wifi. Could you please attached whole dmesg log on bugzilla after you press the Fn key to enable WiFi ?

Currently I doesn't have access to hardware. I can attach whole dmesg log at the end of next week.

Yes, the dmesg will be useful, I can check the log when system boot and acer-wmi probe, and also can see does there have any log from acer-wmi when you press Fn key or access rfkill.

Thank's Joey Lee
Good news. Tested today with Linux 3.0.3 (Kubuntu 11.10 Beta 1) and now it's works fine. So probably this bug is already fixed.
