Well, XF86_VGA16 seems to be the one...

How did you try them?
Try 640x480 at 2 colors:
X_MODE_0 = 25.00 640 644 740 776 480 483 485 505
X_COLOR_DEPTH = 2
in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf

You seem to confuse XF86Config and lts.conf. The two lines I suggest

Yes, at the workstation. That file is dynamically built at boot.

Look again. (runlevel 3, ls /tmp/ at the workstation)
