I am looking for a Puppy Linux (official or unofficial) build, based on Ubuntu 64 Bit (20.04 or 18.04) kernel with LXDE as a desktop interface.
In https://sourceforge.net/projects/lxpup those which are based on Ubuntu are all 32 bit and those which are all 64 bit are based on Slack.

Hi @user834276 ,
@peebee offers ydrvs which add the LXDE desktop environment to (amongst others): BionicPup64-8.0 and FossaPup64-9.x.

Do you know how to add the ydrv.sfs to the Puppy frugal or live install?

Answer: just put the ydrv*.sfs into the same folder as the other pup components (puppy*.sfs initrd.gz vmlinuz zdrv*.sfs etc.) and reboot.

Key question.
Do you have a frugal install or live install on a drive that is read/write?
USB flash drive, SD card, Internal/external hard drive?

That's true - however the OP asked about LXDE not Xfce ...............
