Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: acpi-support

This bug involves 2 files:
/etc/acpi/wireless.sh
/etc/acpi/asus-wireless.sh

the first file does too much output. In fact there is an "echo" in a for: the 
output depends on how many times the instructions in the for is executed.
Especially it is executed N times if N is the number of wireless cards.
example 1: no cards -> no output
example 2: 2 cards -> "1\n1" (\n is newline)

this prevents the led setting for asus laptops to work correctly: look
at the script, it capture the output of wireless.sh and disables the led
if the output is "0" else it enables the led.

A correct way is (in my opinion) working with exit values, instead of
output!
