With the latest version of ltsp comes a version 4.1.0 of XFree86 that has a much better support for S3 chips. so first thing on you list should be to upgrade ltsp (visit http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=17723 ...) and install xcore package ;-)
boot your workstation in level 3 and run /sbin/pci_scan
/etc/vidlist this should test your video and output which driver
XFree86
should use. this will be used in the construction of you XF86Config
file. if the output of this program is XF86_* then you will have to use
X 3.3.6 ...
Read the documentation (PDF is handy ...) and setup the parameters that
are relevant to your station on your server in
/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf (most notably the XF86CONFIG_FILE parameter
for your station.)
you can try to boot up in level 3 and run the following sequence of
commands
bash# export HOME=/tmp
bash# /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 -configure
you should end up with a workable XF86Config.new in your tmp directory
then try
bash# /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 -xf86config /tmp/XF86Config.new -indirect
server
if this works, then transfer the newly created XF86Config to you server
and adjust lts.conf accordingly
here is an XF86Config for X 4.1.0 which deals with a S3 Trio 32/64 with
1024kb of memory .. (1024x768 in 256 colors ;-) works like a charm.

DO NOT USE AS IS as this file contains data for a Samsung monitor
(SyncMaster 3Ne) furthermore the BusId parameter will not work for you,
but this should give you a good idea.replace the HorizSync and
VertRefresh parameters with the ones that are relevant to your monitor
