Title:
  Asus Eee wifi LED always on.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I've got the standard Ubuntu 9.04 desktop version installed on an Asus
  eee pc 900 netbook. This machine has 2 gigs of ram and a 16gb solid
  state drive.

  (I Couldn't use the netbook version of ubuntu 9.04 because that
  requires an atom cpu, and I've got a celeron cpu.)

  There is a blue wifi LED on the bottom-right corner of this machine.
  This light always stays on. This suggests that wireless is always
  enabled.

  When I had desktop Ubuntu 8.10 installed in this machine, the blue LED
  turned off when wireless was not in use.

  I've turned wifi off in the bios, and Ubuntu then turns it back on.

  Pushing fn-f2 is supposed to turn off wireless, but it doesn't.

  I've tried many software-based techniques to disable wireless support
  and thus shut off the blue LED. None of them has worked. The machine
  says wireless is turned off, but the blue LED stays on.

  Hopefully someone will come up with a fix!
