nope, it's just slower. :(
the newer ltsp is actually built from standard debian packages, and all
the boot scripts run on a normal debian system run. it isn't as highly
tuned as the older 4.x ltsp, which is essentially it's own highly
customized linux distribution.
i think the newer (0.93debian1) packages in sid will boot much faster,
as they remove some of the boot scripts that aren't (hopefully) needed.
currently, due to a change in python policy, it will take some small
effort to backport them to sarge(mostly just ldm), but otherwise i think
the packages will work fine on sarge. if you don't need ldm, then i
think the packages from sid will work on fine on sarge unmodified.
the 0.93debian1 packages should hit etch any day now, and will require a
few changes for debian-edu configuration to work properly.
live well,
