4 things I want to add to this thread:
1) Please, mark the thread as solved;
2) Here is another thread about this bug: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2181558
3) I've tried it myself and "wapf = 1 " worked for me:

Code: Select all

 echo "options asus_nb_wmi wapf=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/asus_nb_wmi.conf
4) I guess there's no need to update BIOS or run any scripts. The command above was enough to solve the problem in my case.

This post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? ... st13063772 in particular. It is a good sign when the devs feel this way about the product, that it should work without setting up a bunch of parameters

Yes, I absolutely agree with you. I have huge respect for all these developers, they're actually doing something really valuable for the humankind, contributing to free/libre software projects and a lot of them are just volunteers, they are not doing it for money. I guess this is what you call ubuntu - "humanity towards others". :D
