Lightweight GUI Linux distribution for really old computer 

I temporarily have to use a slow computer:

1.2 Ghz P3
384 MB RAM

On my usual computer, I use Ubuntu with Quanta+. Windows XP seems so slow. So I'm searching for a linux distro, with these requirements:

good package support
good performance - when using only firefox and IDE
easily installable, free, good IDE supporting remote(FTP) web(PHP) development

A:

I would recommend you to install Ubuntu Minimal
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
and then install very lightweight window manager like Openbox, E17 etc.
No, LXDE, XFCE and of course no GNOME and KDE.
After it, you would use nginx as a lightweight web server.
And code through VIM
