Public bug reported:
I own a Lenovo Ideapad v360 laptop with a Broadcom BCM4313 wireless
network adapter. Jockey has installed "bcmwl-kernel-source" package in
order to be able to use the wireless adapter, but it doesn't work
anyway.
Some information:

''cat /etc/log/syslog'' after turning on the wireless network adapter "hardware
switch" and pressing the keyboard wireless switch (I have to hit it twice
sometimes):

NetworkManager applet displays "wireless not ready".
What caught my attention in that last command is the ''acer-wireless'' entry.
Searching on Google I found that blacklisting the ''acer-wmi'' module works
around the issue, and the wireless adapter started working. Another workaround
is to add a parameter to the ''acer-wmi'' module:
