It is really quite simple:

which lspci
cp /locationof/lspci /opt/ltsp/1386/sbin/sbin/
cp /usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/hwdata/

Enable a shell on the clients and swithch to it using the <Alt>+<f#>

run lspci to se the terminal hardware descriptions and lspci -n to get 
the pci ids.

This has always worked for me but you may get different results
