    Is possible fix each error and note message? If yes, how?

    Thank You

    p.d_ the sudo apt upgrade command works fine

    If you still need backports packages (e.g., for specific software), replace the line with deb https://archive.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports main, then run sudo apt update. Note that archive repos receive no security updates, so use at your own risk and consider upgrading to Pep Trixie

    Thanks for the reply and sorry by my delay

    If you still need backports packages (e.g., for specific software)

    If my memory does not fail me it was added to have support for the wireless card.
    So far it works fine yet. Therefore the issue is not critical

    Currently the /etc/apt/sources.list file has for the backports section the following:

    # bullseye-backports, previously on backports.debian.org
    deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-backports main contrib non-free
    #deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-backports main contrib non-free
    

    Therefore. Do you mean?

    From: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ ...
    To:   deb https://archive.debian.org/debian ....
    

    Note that archive repos receive no security updates, so use at your own risk

    Thanks a lot for that advice

    and consider upgrading to Pep Trixie

    Understood, and I want apply that approach but the laptop is an old acer (32bits) and according with

    I must wait until January 2026

    Thank You
