Oculink not recognized: GMKtec Evo-X2 Strix Halo on Linux w/ Aoostar and AMD 9700 Pro

Hi,

Has anyone been able to add an oculink adapter to the extra NVME port going on this box? My GPU and dock seem to be ok but Oculink is not recognized by the system. AI suggests an EC update but I hesitate to take radical action. Might just switch to USB4 and get a new dock (mine is oculink only and worked on a minisforum 8945HS).

I contacted GMKtec but no response. Thought I’d check with the experts first.
