Are you using the latest (Edgy Eft) version of Edubuntu?  There are MAJOR
differences between that one and the earlier (Dapper or 6.06 LTS) release.
 You should try Edgy (6.10).....otherwise...Fiesty Fawn will also have
some major enhancements (7.04...due in April '07 hence the version name) 
K12LTSP is a mature distro....Edubuntu is getting there fast....there's a
lot of effort being put into developing the LTSP part of Edubuntu.
