have been installing debian buster on a eeepc1000h after upgrading it
with a ssd a couple of weeks ago. since i wanted to use i3 i quit the
installation process at the point where they give you their options of
window-managers and did the rest by hand. wifi didn-t work out of the
box, but there is a howto for it:

sc3 via IDE or emacs starts up fine and makes the obligatory
{SinOsc.ar}.play-"beep" successfully (have-nt done more with it on that
machine though).
tidalcycles needs about 30% cpu-power even when idle, so rather unusable.
since firefox is *very* slow on this machine i use falkon.
thunderbird is also a bit slow, but if you-re patient it-s ok :)
it-s a pity that sc3 doesn-t work without window-manager, as for this
machine running sc3 via emacs from the console would be perfect:

Can anyone recommend a distro that still supports

I had to d a reinstall a couple of years ago (debian) and although it
was
never exactly quick before, it's been dog slow ever since :(
I have a EeePC900 which ran sidux quite well back in 2008. It now has
AntiX on it which runs fine but the function keys don't work. That
could possibly be due to a cheap ebay replacement keyboard (the
original died completely) or the lack OS support. Years ago Debian had
2 specific packages, eeepc-acpi-scripts and eee-control which used to
enable these but their most recent versions would not install.
AntiX is pretty lightweight so is well worth trying.
