What I was concerned about is that it can take some time after
/sys/devices/platform/eeepc for the whole module to be ready
(especially the rfkill stuff is slow), so there could be a race
condition.
But the only thing (eeepc_laptop related) the script actually does is
setting the SHEngine, and that appears as soon as the the sysfs
directory is created.
What about this version?
Cheers,

Luca
