Same here - but Alienware 15r3? I'll happily test...will read source code and see if I can just try something.

I guess I really should make a guide on how to add new controllers, but a bit busy at the moment. Basically, you can copy an existing controller such as the one in AlienFXM14xR2Controller.java, and try to adapt the mappings (AlienFX-LED-tester might help if only the ids changed, but it's not used much). Then you need to register the laptop's id in LEDController.java (e.g. public static final int M11XR3_ALIENFX = 0x0516), and add it to the switch in AlienFXControllerFactory.java.

As for the M17x R4, someone added support for it (see #2). What is the device id printed when running the program?

@varasinguluri showed in https://github.com/bchretien/AlienFxLite/issues/13 that the device is 187c:0529
