Though, I did not double-check. Kup wrote

and I just had a look into a logfile of a PC running a i845G, and, 
indeed, it lists vesa.

Still, I had troubles with the 10.04 running on i845, 855, etc. and 
after switching to 11.04 all worked so well out of the box that I did 
not further investigate.

In the meantime, kup wrote me off-list and said that the 11.04 did not 
work on his i845. That's a pity. Unfortunately, I can't help then.

In any case, make sure the actual system is able to boot X at all. 
I.e., don't blame the LTSP config if it's actually the combination of 
kernel, drivers and X that breaks.

HTH,
