My best guess, until you can find someone more knowledgeable is that it is a driver
issue (resulting in two problems).
I've gotten the "No screen found" bit when I was using the wrong driver. Make sure
you figure out which one you need and specify it for your PC in the lts.conf file.
Then see what happens. The framebuffer is obviously just not there. I'm not sure how
it gets there, but that may be a function of the driver also. Thereby; fixing 2
problems w/ one fix.
I'm a bit confused by your files below. You are aware that terminal peripherals are
configured in the /opt/ltsp/i386/lts.conf file instead of /etc/X11/XF86Config right?
Check to see if there is anymore information in /var/log/messages or /var/log/xfree or
some name that looks associated w/ xfree somehow.
