Install Linux driver for expansion card

[levde]

Very helpful to know that the drivers are built in to Linux. When I investigated elsewhere, I didn't stumble across this info, this is the first time I'm hearing it. I am sorry the people who sell the PCIE cards don't just say "supported in Linux". I would not have struggled to find drivers and look for ways to load them. But it looks like it's all working fine. I will link to my Pastebin file where "lsusb -t" shows that both cards are active in 2.0 and 3.0. Thanks to folks on this forum for giving me the clues I needed to discover the truth, it's all working fine.

I hope this is how this works, here is a url for my paste in PasteBin: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wc9c8HtrWD/

Hi deadflowr,
Thank you for this question. It helped me to find the information that ultimately showed that my two expansion cards are working. The other commands that I found helpful were: "lsusb -t" and "lsusb -v". After pulling the cards, reviewing system data, inserting a flash drive to show which device was supporting it, I was able to identify usb buses from these cards and show that they are working fine. The problem was my ignorance and I am grateful for the help that educated me.
