I would like to see x64 distro running on x86 CPU...

It will perform poorly, I had to upgrade my VM from 256MB to 1GB when updated to Jessie. Default install though, so it had Gnome.
Gentoo if you know how to build it. You'll get a tailored Linux distro which will use all possible uArch improvements, you may even able to play 1080p videos on it. And upgrade your RAM, Merom can take 2 GB, no problem.

Maybe it's worth to investigate what CPUs can be installed there, mobile Intel sockets are a clusterfuck, but still, maybe it supports Core2, maybe not.
Ethan Moore
Devuan (Debian without systemd). Install it headless and add a simple window manager like IceWM and a display manager like Slim. If you expect to browse the web at all you should really upgrade to 1GB of RAM.
Hunter James
Probably just kill yourself, and get rid of that obsolete piece of shit.

Puppy Linux or Tinycore. Web browsing will be a pain with anything but w3m.

Windows. Linux is only suited to running headless on such old hardware. Throw one of those Black versions of XP with custom updates on it then be happy.
Nathan Phillips
Install gentoo
Dylan Lopez
Wut? Even back in the days when this kind of hardware was standard I had my spinning desktop-cube on Ubuntu while XP sucked ass at even showing transparent windows.

lubuntu

Cloveros is easily your best choice in this case
Caleb Mitchell
Debian net install with i3
Jose Clark
this is like one of the best use cases of gentoo

Install gentoo

Duh, even modern lower priceclass laptops perform poorly if you install gnome on them, it's one of the most resource heavy desktops ever made

You'll need low RAM usage, so go for a minimal distro like arch or debian (Wihtout DE) and then install i3wm.
Jonathan Thompson
xubuntu 32 bits, ignore lubuntufags. lubuntu is abandonware until lxqt is implemented (2020).
Any usable distro will idle at ~300mb of RAM so you need more RAM desperately if you plan to actually use that thing. 2GB total should do it.
Jaxson Reyes
Lubuntu
Also this. Are you retarded, OP?

Ignore this cocksucker, unless you want to be swapping even if you don't have any program open.

You disgust me.

Wrong.

I even downloaded Bunsen to try on a shit notebook I have here.
I'm sorry OP, but even this is too much for your piece of crap.
