Thanks to a particular confluence of events, I've had an OLPC XO-1 for years and only sort of use it. 

I loathe Sugar as a GUI, and I'm not hugely keen on Fedora (I'm a Mint/Ubuntu girl). I have a developer key, and just enough linux knowledge to be able to fix what I break, even if it does involve regular googling and cursing. All the forums for the OLPC seem to have died around 2012. 

Is there any other linux build that's light enough for the XO-1 and still has support for 90%+ of the hardware? I've heard good things about TinyCore Linux on the XO-1, but is it stable/complete/useful?
