I can confirm that the patch works well on my M14 R3, just in case you
wanted a feedback.

Slight bugfix to my previous patch.
Also power button can be controlled by selecting the right part of the power
button (right part only)

Hello, Just tested your patch and I can confirm power button doesn't work, but
alien head and the other backside lights do work. If you need some help with
the development I could help you by testing or whatever you need.

Thank you for your input, just wanted to let you know that the program now
works, the GUI opens correctly, nevertheless I can only Turn off the Lights not
only of the keyboard but everything, only thing I can't turn them on again, any
help / advice would be kindly appreciated it. I'm using Debian Jessie, tried in
Ubuntu 13.10 and same result, perhaps it's me doing something wrong with the
patch. Thank you in advance.

@#6
My patch is very simple, akin to a stub. It just remaps stuff that worked for
m14r2 and swaps left and right parts. If anything doesn't work (Such as power
button), it needs to be investigated and fixed.
In other words, sorry, the reason for not working is probably some difference
between the AlienFX device in this model and the one used in M14R2 and I have
not had the time to properly add support, sorry (:

but does nothing else. here is the output from the terminal. Hope this helps.

Seems to crash after you tell it to power off lights. Restart the program and
set any other light color and it's going to power lights back on. I don't have
the time to debug it now, I might take a look over the weekend, but if it takes
more than an hour, count it out...

Some added info:
Shut down then started my laptop again.
Ran the launcher and got this when I tried to set all lights to green:
