I have the i5 DIY edition, and am running Manjaro Gnome with the UEFI 3.06. I transferred my SSD with Linux from my previous laptop (Dell XPS 13 9370) to this new one, and everything seems to be working perfectly EXCEPT for Thunderbolt detection.
I have a Thunderbolt 3 eGPU enclosure (the AORUS Gaming Box 2070) and am attempting to detect it. However, Iβm not able to find it with either lspci
or boltctl
(output below).

I understand that Thunderbolt requires user authorization to work; do I have to authorize the device somehow? I would rather not have to install Windows alongside my Linux partition just to fix this problem, but I guess I can if that is the only option. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
