You are right. I finally got to test the 1.05 Bios version, and it fixed a
keyboard issue (<> buttons not working with 1.00 and 1.03 version), but the
back-light issue and wireless switch are still not fixed. On top of that Compal
has finally told me that they have no intention of supporting linux with this
machine. This means that the only hope for a fix of these issues is a
linux-patch.

To top it off, my test-machine died. I will need to RMA it, and that will
probably take another couple of weeks. Once I get it back, I will try to enable
the wireless power switch from windows. Once enabled, it should stay enabled
according to another user.

Unfortunately, the machine was tricky to boot from USB too, so using unetbootin
with freedos to flash the bios was a no-go. However, freedos from USB-stick
works great installing it using qemu as explained here (second to last option):
