Archlinux Support

Could you add support for Archlinux? Everything that Ubuntu has, should be possible to add in Archlinux. :)

Thanks!

Ironhide only supports Ubuntu, for Arch Linux support check https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bumblebee Bumblebee also works with nouveau.

Where is the difference between The Bumbelbee Project and Ironhide anyway ? Is Ironhide only for ubuntu ? Is there any code difference?

Ironhide is built on / a continuation the legacy Bumblebee code with removed support for other distros, developed by Martin Juhl. On installation, it installs scripts for disabling the nvidia card from Martins server which can be submitted without verification. Bumblebee on the other hand is rewritten and maintained by a team of developers, aiming for stability and better security. It supports other distros as well, offers support for nouveau drivers and provides a back-end for power management scripts as well.
