Yep! Or you could install the ubuntu-netbook package from within Edubuntu.

If you're installing on a fresh system, you could also double-click on
the "Install Netbook Interface" on the desktop in the live cd after the
installer has finished (you'll need to click on 'continue testing'
instead of 'reboot now').

We've started to make it a lot nicer for the next release, but time is
running short so we might have to end up deferring it to the next
release. When it's done, you'll be able to install options like the
netbook interface from within the installer which will be a lot more
intuitive! :)
