Title:
  Fn-Keys for Wifi & 3G not working on Acer Aspire One 532

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I'm using an Acer Aspire One 532h with integrated 3G modem. The with
  the Fn+F2 key I should be able to toggle the status of wifi and 3G (at
  least with Windows 7). As the Fn+F2 key does not produce any events in
  Ubuntu, I'm unable to use my 3G modem. I also can't turn wifi off, eg.
  when going on an airplane.

  wifi on, 3g off <-- default mode at start-up.
  wifi off, 3g on
  wifi on, 3g on
  wifi off, 3g off

  I already tries this with the latest upstream kernel, same for standard lucid kernel.
  I also tried the usual suspects and did not find any events for this key: dmesg, xev,showkey

  Other keys such as brightness, suspend, etc. work fine.
