Following up on this thread

KDE's kwifimanager was explicitly patched to toggle the Wireless LED on/off on
Asus notebooks. It seems that the function really belongs in NetworkManager
instead. I patched my copy of NetworkManager 0.6.5 to add the function, the
patch is attached. It's probably not the cleanest approach, but it works for me.
