Description

I am running coreboot 24.05 on my Lenovo X201.

I decided to upgrade my WiFi card from an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 to an Intel Wireless-AC 7260; since I selected the option to support Intel PCIe cards in my build config I expected everything to work but my computer fails to recognize the new card. The old card is still recognized if I reinstall it so I know I didn't mess up the socket somehow; I've read reports of the 7260 working with a modded factory BIOS so I don't think there's an electrical issue. I've seen somewhat related bugs but it seems their issue isn't mine.

I've attached lspci data from both chips and my build config, lmk if additional information is needed.
