Pentium-M means 32-bit.  I think it's matter of GUI desktop, rather than
distro.  
    - The lowest resource is Anti-X which is Debian based, so you can at
      least "apt-get" what you want.
    - CrunchBang++ might be next, also Debian based.
If that fails, you can always do Debian/Ubuntu + Desktop of your choice.
