Aha! I think I have a clue what's wrong. In ltsp-4, there isn't a build_x3_cfg script for building the XF86Config file. There is one for the X 4.x but not for the 3.3.6.
I'll see if I can whip up a script today for that. In the meantime, try setting your XSERVER = s3 that will cause it to use the X 4.3.99 version of the Xserver, and it will use build_x4_cfg, which does exist. When I get the build_x3_cfg script finished, i'll post it to the list.
