I'm using trisquel with libreboot but its not very light weight. Ideally something with only free software.

Make sure to get an SSD, the HDDs made when the hardware was new are now extremely slow
Also get at least 2GB RAM

debian with xfce, it's definetely your choice

kde

Parabola. Pick whatever DE/WM you want, Xfce and MATE are both pretty lightweight. Parabola is rolling release and stays pretty close to Arch, while Trisquel hasn't had a major upgrade in a while (don't know about regular updates). FWIW, Parabola is the only distro recommended by both FSF and Libreboot.
