Wouldn't that mean that you cannot thaw the system if the wlan acpi call fails?

I'd rather have my system up and running without wlan, than I'd have
my system down because we couldn't start wlan. This is of course
assuming that returning an error from eeepc_hotk_thaw means the
thawing stops.

Frans
