  A good resource for this is the projection list at remotesensing.org :

http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/proj_list/

The lambert conformal conic 2sp should have enough info for you to translate
the gdalinfo output below into the proj4 parameters. They can be inserted
into the layer's projection block like:

PROJECTION
 "proj=lcc"

Hope this helps,
