- Bug Fixes: Rewrote `install_gaming_bullseye()` in `modules/bullseye/legacy.sh` to use a unified `_checklist` flow (matching Debian 12/13) with automatic i386 architecture detection and driver installation. Fixed greetd "Back" menu crash on Debian 11 by adding version-specific conditional logic in `desktop_display.sh`. Corrected ZRAM text overflow in `zram.sh` using `\n` line breaks for terminal wrapping. Updated Kernel Backports warning message in `debianito.sh` to clarify Bullseye limitations.
- Architecture & Repositories: Refactored Debian 11 repository configuration (`configure_repos_bullseye`) to reuse modern submenus (`_repos_enable_components`, `_branch_migration`), eliminating ~44 lines of hardcoded logic and duplicate source list management. Restricted `non-free-firmware` component availability to Debian 12+ in `modules/repos.sh`. Implemented mandatory `apt autoremove -y` and `apt autoclean` execution immediately after enabling non-free/contrib components (`_repos_enable_components`).
- UI & Menus: Added a new "Communication" menu (Option 4) between Internet and Media Players, featuring Signal, Telegram (with Trixie backports warning), and Hexchat. Moved all terminal emulators from System Tools to the "Customization System" -> Terminals submenu (`modules/extras/terminals/terminals.sh`) with version-specific logic (Alacritty 12+, Blackbox/Ptyxis 13+). Added Joplin installer in Office & Productivity for Debian 12/13 only. Integrated Synaptic into Software Centers menu alongside GNOME and Plasma stores. Unified Essential Pack UI across versions, switching between `fastfetch` (Trixie) and `neofetch` (Bookworm/Bullseye).
- Hardware Drivers: Replaced deprecated `install_gpu_drivers()` in `modules/gpu.sh` with `_install_amd_intel_stack()` and `_install_nvidia_stack()`. Implemented specific logic for Debian 13 (Trixie): Blackwell GPUs now enable the official NVIDIA CUDA repository; Maxwell/Pascal on Backports forces a stable kernel path to ensure driver compatibility. Deprecated `install_nvidia_driver()` in favor of new stack functions while preserving global state variables (`NVIDIA_DRIVER_MODE`).
- Utilities & Cleanup: Added `gdebi` and `bleachbit` to System Tools (GUI-only). Standardized menu headers across 15 files using a centralized `SCROLL_HINT` variable. Ensured VLC installation is conditional on headless status checks in Essential Pack modules.
- Removed dead Broadcom hardware IDs (4357/4358/4360/4727) from `_is_broadcom_b43`, retaining only valid ID 4352 to eliminate false positives in the case statement.
- Added a guard in `_handle_wireless` Level 3 to verify `linux-headers` availability via `apt-cache policy`. Skips DKMS compilation if headers are missing, preventing transaction failures during installation.
- Implemented Broadcom combo card detection (WiFi + Bluetooth) by scanning `PCI_BT_DEVS`. Automatically writes `/etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-combo.conf` with `softdep wl post: btusb` and warns users about potential reboot requirements.
- Enhanced Level 2 (`firmware-b43-installer`) with post-installation validation for `/lib/firmware/b43`. Provides clear recovery instructions via `sudo dpkg-reconfigure firmware-b43-installer` if the directory is empty or missing after installation.
- Created a new helper `_msg_red()` in `utils.sh` to handle critical error messages with colored Whiptail output, replacing standard alerts for migration warnings and failures.
- Updated `repos/migrate.sh` to use `_msg_red()` for branch migration warnings and failure states, ensuring visibility of critical issues while keeping completion messages informative.
- Verified headless mode guards across 16 separate extras files (`office.sh`, `fetch.sh`, `cursors.sh`, etc.), preventing unnecessary package installations on servers without display environments.
- Completed syntax verification (`bash -n`) across all core and extra modules, ensuring no errors in the updated logic for firmware, gaming, swap, or repository management scripts.
