Maybe as an option: If there are special drivers needed, patches to the kernel, etc., you can run Debian on the Ubuntu kernel if everything else fails.
I'm running a Chromebook* this way, using some ChromiumOS Kernel** plus Debian userland in Chromebooks dev-mode.
regards hede*) Coreboot+Depthcharge, no u-boot or UEFI, Googles Embedded Controler, etc. **) self compiled kernel with mixed ChromiumOS+Debian config plus some fixes as the ChromiumOS patchset for Linux 5.10 a little buggy and doesn't even compile with some config options Debian sets but ChromiumOS does not use.
