@olivierlambert I'm willing to go procure another to try to troubleshoot, 2 of us tried 3 different cards on different servers and spent a lot of time and never got anywhere with the cards. This is some messages I still have have from back when I was trying. More or less, XCPNG could see the cards, they could be passed to a VM either in XO or CLI, we tried a couple different linux VM's on 6.17 kernel and would get errors like below, I also tried a windows VM and it couldn't identify the card at all, tried latest intel drivers, etc.

The driver is telling you that you are missing the Intel Xe firmwares (that are probably in linux-firmware package).
