It might be because your Ubuntu version is the same version as the
Edubuntu version? Edubuntu is essentially the same as Ubuntu, it just
has a different configuration and some additional packages (and some
removed for disc space purposes). If you want edubuntu, you could add
the Edubuntu CD in synaptic as another source, and install
edubuntu-desktop edubuntu-artwork edubuntu-artwork-usplash and
edubuntu-docs, then you will basically have an Edubuntu system
installed.
