It's not included in LTSP, no. But in theory, it should be entirely transparent to the X Server, so LTSP doesn't even have to know about it. I have no first-hand experience, and I don't know what distro you are running, but here http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.opengl.virtualgl.user/771 somebody got it working on Ubuntu 12.04 (after fixing some command line arguments, in a setup without LTSP). I would 1) Install virtualgl on the server, restart 2) Try it using a normal PC (that is, no LTSP thin client) as the virtualgl client as explained here http://www.virtualgl.org/vgldoc/2_2_1/#hd007 3) Try it from a thin client (use a terminal window that was started on the thin client as a localapp, i.e. "ltsp-localapps xterm" ). If you are lucky, it will "just work". Do report back if you have any results!
