I found a very similar topic at https://community.amd.com/t5/devgurus-discussion/amdgpu-install-on-ubuntu-22-04-1-lts/m-p/555754 , however, this does NOT solve my issue.
I'm using a very old Desktop, the video card is AMD RX 580, with Debian 12 installed.

When I tried to install the driver by command amdgpu-install (which I downloaded directly from http://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/23.10.2/ubuntu/jammy/amdgpu-install_5.5.50502-1_all.deb , on https://www.amd.com/en/support/linux-drivers ) , I got:

Can anybody please give me a hand?
By default debian, ubuntu and fedora, use the amdgpu driver which is included in the repositories. In many cases this is sufficient, but if you want it for gaming or other tasks, it is insufficient.
AMD doesn't support Debian or Fedora (very bad AMD), you have to find your own way, I managed some time ago to install the amdgpu drivers in Debian 10, but that was a long time ago.
In Fedora 38, my GPU RX 5700 XT doesn't perform as well as it should because I can't install the official drivers, the ones from the repository aren't working very well.

Necromancing because this thread keeps appearing at the top of my search results:
All the not-installable packages are i386 arch packages. This is likely happening because you have not enabled the multi-arch option for dpkg.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt update
Then try again -
