GeoGebra will work in Ubuntu but you will have to install it manually.
Luckily, they provide an all-in-one script that provides the Java
Runtime Environment required. I can confirm that it works in Edubuntu
6.04 development version, although it complains that it doesn't like
clearlooks.

Bundling Geogebra in Edubuntu can be considered but it won't work out
of the box because we cannot redistribute Java.
