This wiki page documents the configuration and troubleshooting specific to the Alienware M14xR2 laptop.
See the Installation guide for installation instructions.
Apr 24, 2014 So I finally got around to doing a repaste on my m14x r2. After slowly cleaning up the crap that Alienware calls paste I repasted the cpu and gpu. I ran all my regular benchmarks at on average 7 degrees celcius cooler for my gpu which obviously allowed the cpu to run cooler as well. So all-in-all I absolutely recommend repasting. This package contains the Alienware Command Center application that is supported on Alienware systems Aurora R8, Area-51 R5/R6, Area-51 R7, Alienware 15 R4, Alienware m15, Alienware m15 R2, Alienware m17, Alienware Area-51m, and Alienware 17 R5; and Dell systems Dell G5 15 5590, Dell G7 15 7590, and Dell G7 17 7790, running on Windows 10 operating system with an Alienware or Dell. If I look at the drivers listed on Dell's site for the m14x r2, a lot of these drivers listed have Windows 10 drivers. I may try to make a post with all driver downloads for older models. Most models back to 2008, and some OLDER can run Windows 10 fine.

Sound
This computer is using the CA0132 chipset.Alsa should work out of the box except for some bugs.
For those using 3.8 kernel note that card sometimes will do random noise that can be fixed by reloading the corresponding module saying that buffer position should be fixed:
If you lose sound after system wake you can recover it by rebooting into Windows and booting Linux again. This may have to do with a firmware problem.There's also no headphone detection.

In kernel 3.9 firmware problem seems to be fixed and headphone detection is working (If speakers don't automute go to alsamixer and unmute HP/Speaker Auto Detect). A lot of channels and fx were added to alsa. Automute only works with the one headphone and microphone jack and not with the earphones jack. This should be reported.
Touchpad
Works out of the box.See Synaptics
Video
Since kernel 3.5, PRIME technology is officially supported by the Nouveau graphic drivers. This means that the Nvidia Optimus GPU used in this computer is supported. You need to install bumblebee to let vgaswitcheroo disable your graphics card.
In kernel 3.7 power managing methods were added, so battery life increased a lot.
Kernel 3.10 is coming with a lot of fixes in the Nouveau driver for our NVE0 (Kepler) graphics card. We are expecting a lot of power management improvements.
Control of the light colors
Alienware M14x R2 Review
Supported by alienware-kbl a software to manage the light colors with a graphical interface, python or bash commands.
BIOS
Current latest version is A12 from InsydeH20.
The updater provided by Dell is windows only. If you want to update and you don't have Windows I recomend you using HirensBoot CD and Unetbooting for creating an Windows Live USB in order to flash the bios.
It contains the flasing utility and the update file (isflashWin.bin).WARNING: This file should not be used with the DOS flashit utility!As it seems this file is an MSDOS executable file which holds LZMA data inside. I could never get it working.
