    Your hardware is capable of running any Linux desktop depending on the graphics card/chip. The lighter better known GUI desktop environments include XFCE and LXDE/Open Box. LXDE is the lighter of the two .

    Why not just use Slackware?

    SalixOS
    Absolute

    While I favor the former, the latter is especially suited for older, limited-resource PCs

    If you want to use Slackware then you should use SLACKWARE and the documentation is here:

    +1 to using Slackware... The oldest distro that I am aware of that is based on Slackware (and for a period it was known as one of the most user friendly ones around) which uses XFCE is Zenwalk (http://www.zenwalk.org/)

    Great time to jump on board with Slackware itself with 14.0 proving to be an excellent and rock solid release
    You think that's air you're breathing now?

    I personally tried Salix, it was pretty decent.
    Sure it didnt do what I wanted it to do but it was semi decent IMHO.

    I am giving you an advice.
    You should use better title which can make the reader understand what you want, such as "linux distro fully based on SLACKWARE".

    As many persons suggested, I also suggest you Slackware or Absolute linux.
    OpenBox: Debian Wheezy, Sid, Snowlinux, Aptosid, Siduction, Crunchbang, Ubuntu, Mint, ZorinOS, OS4, Arch, Manjaro, Mageia, Fedora, CentOS, OpenSuSE, PCLinuxOS, Sabayon, Slackware, Win XP/7
