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: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1460790&p=9162799#post9162799 Less ideally - is there a way to get writing to /sys/devices/platform/asus_laptop/wlan fixed? ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- Wifi led won't toggle when enabling/disabling wifi on ASUS laptop with 14.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1317388 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
