I wonder if "postmarketOs" is anything to hope for?
You are welcome to use postmarketOS. I have personally found that in general, linux is linux, i.e. distro-hopping isn't really useful.

Code:
touch /home/user/.cache/sxmo/sxmo.nosuspend
Anyway, the postmarketOS issue tracker is the best place to report those issues. I've scaled down my postmarketOS work, but if you open issues there, I will look at them when I have some free time. (yes, I am the maintainer for N900 packaging in postmarketOS)
Maybe I attempt with another (newer sdxc) card, another day, dono.
The sdxc seems not the problem, i tried a fresh install with last img and i got quite the same errors/bugs (slowness, keyboard symbols not working and input settings crashing).
Something seems wrong with dbus and gconf2 on last imgs.
As a workaround you could maybe download an old stable img from dec 2023 for example and dist-upgrade to very last stuff. (I'll try tomorrow)
N900, the essence of life
