Mint MATE is good for old computers, but I wonder you'd need to configure the tablet-like "touch" input manually and that could be some work.
I've found touch input to work OOTB in most cases, what I've had issues with though is screen orientation detection ๐
It's pretty difficult to poke around with when the tablet is slow, I peronally gave up trying to create a new rotation config for an older Atom tablet
