I'm running Mint Debian Edition on my ZG5 (BTW, system monitor reports it as a *dual core* processor, but to enable that I need to install the 686-pae kernel [1], and the RAM is 1GB). It's not lightning fast, but I find it acceptable. I also like the fact that I can run my Shorter Oxford English Dictionary using Wine.
