1)  Thanks for the optimistic view. :)

2)  Regarding the small window: Have you tried to change the screen 
resolutions in Ubuntu ? - although you can't get full screen, it should be 
possible to get it at least almost full screen. It works in both Windows 
10, Linux Mint and Debian 10.3.

3)  For me it's fine if just I can get on the internet from within Ubuntu 
by using a cable connection ? - I haven't been able to get it working in a 
Debian GUI HVM, but at least in a Windows 10 and Linux Mint HVM. But I 
would like to install a program that only works with Debian and Ubuntu, so 
I need to at least get either Debian or Ubuntu to work and being able to 
connect to the internet.

4)  Thanks for the link. For me this one sounds relevant: 
https://qubes.3isec.org/Templates_4.0/qubes-template-bionic-desktop-4.0.1-202001121248.noarch.rpm
  
as I guess it has a desktop with a GUI.
     To use it, shall I then just download it to a VM, copy it to dom0 by 
executing this command; qvm-run -p <build_qube> "cat '/home/user/Downloads/
qubes-template-bionic-desktop-4.0.1-202001121248.noarch.rpm'" > 
qubes-template-bionic-desktop-4.0.1-202001121248.noarch.rpm  I guess "
<build_qube>" shall be replaced by the name of the new template, is that 
correct ?
     And do I then just need to run this command to execute the file and 
get the template created with a GUI desktop: chmod +x 
qubes-template-bionic-desktop-4.0.1-202001121248.noarch.rpm && ./
qubes-template-bionic-desktop-4.0.1-202001121248.noarch.rpm ?

5)  Do I understand you correctly, that you installed Ubuntu as LVM, and 
that worked... ? - If so, what options did you change. to make it work ? - 
Then I might try that first.
