Geode LX800. This is technically a 686 but it doesn't support PAE, so
the CPU family remains 586.

AFAIK plain 686 (without PAE) is the baseline. Debian's
linux-image-686 actually is configured for Geode.

Both have worked until whatever is currently in Stable. Firefox as-is,
gnome-shell using the X wrapper.
