The problem PERFECTLY solved with ubuntu-7.04-alternate. By the way, Gavin, `dpkg --configure -a` displayed nothing and exited with 0. edubuntu-(desktop and server) installed smoothly from edubuntu-server CD. `ltsp-build-client` became a kind of problem: as my LAN is behind a proxy I had to `export http_proxy=http://proxy:3128/` before running ltsp-build-client besides setting proxy in /etc/apt/apt.conf. Is it documented anywhere?
