Additional Information:

The Laptop has 4 LED "Parts":

  1. the Logo on the lid
  2. on the backside the so called Arena
  3. The PowerButton ... The Powerbutton changes it's color only if you safe to default while the other Parts changes color imediatelly by assigning it ... The Powerbutton has 2 Main States: 1. Wired - 2. on Battery
  4. The Keyboard

... in because of USBCap/Wireshark Problems i was only able to capture the roothub of the devices, it includes the Bluetooth device which i have disabled before captureing ... Right now the Machine is running Windows, ... i'm a Linux user and want to get rid of Windows. I'm changing to Linux soon then i don´t have a possibility to use the Alienware Software any more,... So the next change of the colors will be when you get it supported,... my hope is to be able to controll my "beauty" from within Linux via OpenRGB one day....

Thanks for the help!
