Recently got my build together, MB is an MSI Tomahawk B450.
OS: Ubuntu 18.04
Everything works great except this. I got this wireless adapter which isn't being picked up.
I've tried futzing with the MB PCI settings to no avail. Neither
Is there some setting I'm missing to turn on this slot? Alternatively are all the slots powered by default? Is it possible I've missed a power cable somewhere (I assume all the PCI slots are powered with the MB's master power cable but I'm not 100% sure). Some switch I need to toggle? I'm pulling my hair out here trying to figure out what's wrong.
Here's how I have it setup I have the GPU in the top PCIe x16 slot which makes all other slots except the bottom x1 inaccessible. Do I need to move the GPU down, perhaps (doing this would downgrade my performance moving it to the v2 slot, if I"m not mistaken)?
I guess it's possible the card is DOA but they QA them so it seems like the chances of that are incredibly small.

lspci nor sudo lspci -M pick up this card. It's like nothing is being detected.Is there some setting I'm missing to turn on this slot? Alternatively are all the slots powered by default?
