Public bug reported:

Using my wlan key i can't get it on again - so i've looked deeper in the
scripts and found following errors / wrong assumptions.

The /etc/acpi/events/asus-wireless-on does trigger on 0000005f, but this should 
be 0000005e.
The /etc/acpi/events/asus-wireless-off does trigger on 0000005e, but this 
should be 0000005f.

So both events are "swapped" - at least on my P35 modell here (monitored
using acpi_listen and asus_laptop modul).

And the next things which breaks all is the state function setLEDAsusWireless.
These function does only work if, and only if, the call to 
/sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/wlan does control the LED - but thats not 
true for a P35/P35.
Echoing 0 or 1 to this device, you are controling the real hardware kill 
switch,not only the led. This can be monitored by watching the rf_kill device 
and watching the state become "3" = hardware kill when echoing a 0 do the wlan 
device.
So this call should never be done, because the led does itself "knows" if wlan 
is toggled on or off (if you don't use the softkill rf_kill variant - but from 
a hardware perspective this is true).

The solution to me is - to completly comment out the script calls for
now as it would break my wlan if i ever use this button - but that can't
be a real solution.
