Don't know for sure, but it basically is supposed to be a bitpipe
jetdirect.  So my guess is no.  I have yet to figure out how to restart
the process on the ltsp client and rebooting is just easier.  If the
process is started from init I could probably just kill it.

I have also not looked at upgrading ltsp lately either.  There may be a
fix available.  I did a whole bunch of work a while back getting
loadkeys compiled to work on an ltsp client.  Man that was a pain.
