OK, i'll rephrase...

Is there a way to install a clean distribution like Ubuntu or Debian on a Q10...?

Thanks!

It is a closed source device, you have as much luck installing Linux on it as with most Android devices. They are not meant for installing Linux. Even with Nexuses and Pixels it is not usable, not to mention the lack of drivers for anything. It is best that you try LibreElec on devices that can dual boot it.
