I just tested this fix on a fresh 9.10 installation (with new updates
applied as of today, but no other changes from the stock iso) and Stefan
Bader's ppa on my Eee PC 1000.  There is no more kernel panic, and it
disconnects from the wireless network, but the LED light stays on.
Checking lspci reveals that the wireless card is no longer there.  Does
that mean that the wifi is no longer draining the battery when it is
off?  Why is the LED not turning off?

When I turn the wifi off in the BIOS, the LED turns off correctly.
