Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: wl
I have one annoying issue with my BCM43225 802.11b/g/n device on my Acer
emachines E732G. After downloading updates recently (between 27th and
30th of April) my Fn-keys for turning WiFi on/off stopped working. WiFi
itself works fine and can be activated/deactivated by rightclick on
Network Manager.

Strangely enough I have tested Ubuntu 11.04 on this machine and
everything works fine, both of the above mentioned (lsmod grep, rfkill)
deliver correct output. I have already tried blacklisting acer-wmi
without any results, so I removed it from the blacklist again.
