Learning to use tools such as lspci, lsusb, many others and in particular understanding what udev is doing (a lot on modern systems) and how to control it will help. That's IMO one advantage of a distro such as Arch: whenever you have some problem, the solution offered on the e.g. the Arch wiki or suggestions from other users usually gently force you to use the available tools and understand what is happenng rather than giving a 'shrink wrapped' solution. And after some time (and sweat and lapses of panic and desperation) that pays off.
