I'm new to this but I've run out of places to ask for help.
Desktop Specs (for future reference):
- Ryzen 9 3950X
- ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (with WiFi)
- 64 GB Corsair Vengence Pro RGB (2 x 32 GB)
- NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 (temp card because I'm waiting on the RTX 3000 to drop soon)
- Corsair AX 850W PSU
- Kraken Z73 AIO Cooler
- Samsung Evo 970 1 TB NVMe
I am Dual-Booting this desktop with 750 GB going to Windows and 250 GB going to Ubuntu 20.04
uname -a
yields Linux omega 5.4.0-26-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 20 16:58:30 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I've reached multiple problems in trying to install Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on my desktop.
The first problem is that Ubuntu doesn't "claim" my integrated WiFi card on the motherboard.
Running lshw -C network
yields:

I am currently using a USB Dongle for WiFi, but I'd much rather the free USB port. I've tried installing the right driver for the Intel WiFi and put it into /lib/firmware
but nothing has changed
Second error is on terms of glitches with the UI. For some reason, if I drag my cursor to the very bottom left of my screen to the point where my cursor seems gone, my system "purple screens" but a very light purple color. I haven't found what is the source of this error but my money is on the graphics card.
I'm a beginner to this Linux stuff and have tried a lot of things on the web, and I would really like to solve both of these issues. Please let me know if I have to run anything more on my desktop to find a solution.
