LXLE
LXDE eXtra Luxury Edition
Change is good but changing everything isn't always great. Same is true for aging computers and their operating systems. Support is sometimes lost too quickly with a 6 month core release cycle. Graphics & Audio cards and chipsets get dropped along with other miscellaneous functions with programs or drivers that just go missing. We all like having updated software we certainly don't like down time or loss of features and capabilities. I believe most aging hardware just needs the right system on it, and lets face it, it helps keep a couple bucks in your pocket if you can squeeze a few more years out of your current system; without sacrificing, performance, capability, usability and of course aesthetics. http://lxle.net/forums/ -

Window Maker Live
Window Maker Live Linux Distribution
Window Maker Live is an installable Linux Live ISO based on the current Trixie branch of Debian. The system uses the Window Maker window manager as the default graphical user interface. Window Maker Live's components have been carefully preconfigured and the desktop environment has a consistent visual appearance. Window Maker Live integrates selected components from other desktop environments such as XFCE4, MATE, LXQT, with a particular focus on GNUstep. The main idea behind this project is to integrate the Window Maker window manager as default user interface on top of a standard Debian/Trixie base system. It also serves as an alternate installation medium for Debian/Trixie. The second main idea not directly visible on the surface level is the inclusion of many useful command line utilities and tools for system administration. This effectively turns wmlive into a UNIX administrator's workbench for rescue and repair operations. -

Kader⁴²
Linux Distribution for convertible laptops
The goal of this distribution is to provide all the features you’d expect from a distribution on a convertible, right out of the box: * Display rotation * The appropriate launcher based on whether you’re in notebook or tablet mode * Dash menu in tablet mode * Standard menu in notebook mode * Preconfigured swipe gestures similar to those on Android or iOS * On-screen keyboard in tablet mode If any of these features don't work on your device, please feel free to contact me. We can then work together to find a solution, which will eventually be incorporated into the distribution. It's possible that there are devices where display rotation won't work properly. In that case, we'll check whether a ready-made hwdb file with the matrix already exists, or we'll have to try to create a corresponding file ATTENTION! In the first uploaded ISO file (renamed to deprecated) was a bug,that the display rotation doesn't work anymore, which I have fixed now. Sorry for that!! -
