I don't think that's any better, sorry.

Hey... you're making this conditional on whether a power led is reported
present, right?  Are you sure the EeePC doesn't report itself as having
a power led?

Because it has a nice blue LED that shows the rfkill state, and it could
well be implemented as a pci hotplug power led.  I know that you can't
change it independently from the EC - you can poke EeePC-specific mapped
registers to hack the state of the charge LED, but not the rfkill one.
