Have been running 486/66 and 486/100 with S3Trio-something (1Mb), 24MB
RAM. Still doing their job, but we replaced the graphics cards and in
the meantime got some brand new 17" CRTs.
Generally, the cards made a resolution of 800x600x16bit, even on the
old 15" CRT. If I find a modeline (will be to that site saturday
morning) in the config files, I'll keep you posted. Anyway, assume
your monitor has the lowest possible values and use an online modeline
calculator (google.de->"Online modeline calculator" helped me to find
one) - the resulting modeline should give you a working setup.
The technically imposed limits (1Mb) are
800x600 with 16bits
640x480 with 24bits (if you get that working)
1024x768 with 8bits (really working for us, only the monitors made you
hate it, they were to bad)

Perhaps you find out the Hertz number they use. Or look onto the
monitor's back to find values.
I seem to remember there is an lts.conf entry to specify modelines to
use directly rather than creating whole an XF86Config ? Comments, List ?

Should be indeed. But you bet windows doesn't like more than 640x480?
At least 3.11 (which was what we found before installing linux)
