Apologies. I stated earlier that I am using Mint on my RPi. I meant, of course,
Ubuntu MATE. Like many people I tend to naturally associate the MATE desktop
with Linux Mint.
However, Ubuntu MATE is another excellent option for driving your 32 bit
servers. You would still need to install openSSH server and might similarly
choose to upgrade Gambas from the default version 3.5.4. The default version of
Postgresql is 9.4.

Hi
Linux Mint 17.3 would satisfy all your requirements. I run a number of small
servers, including an RPi, on Mint and they are simply trouble-free.
I am not aware of any plans to end 32-bit support. The current version of
Postgres is 9.3.12.
You would need to install openssh-server (client comes as part of the build),
and you would probably want to upgrade the version of Gambas from a PPA, as the
standard is currently 3.1.1. I use 3.8.1 and there are no problems at all.
There is a choice of desktops - Cinnamon, MATE, KDE, Xfce. If you are running
your devices as servers you could configure them to boot to command line, so
the "weight" of the desktop is not really an issue. Just go for whichever you
prefer and fire it up only when you need it.
I would estimate that after the basic installation, all your configuration,
installation and upgrade tasks could be achieved in about 10-15 minutes per
device.
