Ok, I can't read :).  Sounds reasonable.  Unfortunately all I can give
you is confirmation that this failure is indeed non-fatal

[    5.606957] eeepc: Eee PC Hotkey Driver
[    5.607165] eeepc: Hotkey init flags 0x41
[    5.608431] eeepc: Get control methods supported: 0x101711
[    5.608570] input: Asus EeePC extra buttons as /class/input/input5
[    5.635564] Unable to find rfkill port handle

(eeepc-laptop still loads and e.g. the hotkeys still work)

so I guess you would like my acpidump (attached).

Thanks
Alan
