No manual config required. The wireless NIC required installing firmware-misc-nonfree and the kernel from bullseye-backports (the Mediatek 7961 wireless NIC required kernel version >=5.12, bullseye has version 5.10, but bullseye-backports has version 5.18). After rebooting with the 5.18 kernel, the wireless NIC worked perfectly with no manual configuration required. Other than this, the display, keyboard, sound and touchpad has worked without a hitch, as far as I can tell. No manual configuration done. Suspend resume also works fine. I manually adjusted the partition table during the install. The automatic partitioning only created 1GB of swap. I wanted 1.5 times physical memory to allow for hibernation. So I set up a partition table with 24GB of swap and the stuff between the UEFI partition and swap as ext4.
