Im considering installing Manjaro linux on my area51m R2 and worried about loosing alienFX. Will this tool let me control all that sweet RGB? Hardware :Alienware area51m R2

Well, your model seems to be at an "unknown" state. Check here for the supported list. https://github.com/trackmastersteve/alienfx/blob/master/docs/Knowledgebase/Devicelist.md Keep in mind that it could still work, the best you could do is boot LiveUSB and check in the live environment (without Manjaro installation) Install alienfx there and check for yourself! Also, give OpenRGB a try, if alienfx won't work, maybe OpenRGB will. ;)

Thank you :). I can report back here and it can go from “unknown” to “working” or “not working”

Also. Your link is dead

Oh, thanks for pointing that out, I've fixed the link now.
