Wasn't quite that simple, had to:
apt-get purge acpi-support and then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop.

After reinstall the behaviour changed, now WLAN won't come back on
unless I use setLEDAsusWireless 1 again. But BT does, on the third try,
and doesn't go off again until I enable WLAN again manually.
