in the section for this workstation use:

  XSERVER            =3D XF86_S3

And there must be a binary named XF86_S3 in
/opt/ltsp/i386/usr/X11R6/bin/

That binary can be downloaded from
ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/3.3.6/binaries/Linux-ix86-glibc21/Servers=
/XS3.tgz
or by installing the ltsp package x336_s3 from=20
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ltsp/ltsp_x336_s3-3.0.0-0.i386.rpm?downl=
oad=20

If you want X 4.2, which in contrast to 4.1 does support this chip,
see
