[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1317388@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

This is a common problem dating back to the 2008:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/450750/asus-wifi-led-not-working

There is a workaround for this, by creating additional files in etc/acpi
and handling event by command:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/asus_laptop/wlan

But in 14.04 I get access denied when trying to write to this file. This
worked in 13.04 and 13.10 and in 14.04 is broken.

Ideally, is there a chance to include this solution in Ubuntu:

Less ideally - is there a way to get writing to
/sys/devices/platform/asus_laptop/wlan fixed?
