Updated fatclient script to work with Jaunty
I recently found myself banging my head against a wall because my fatclient script had stopped working for Jaunty, even though I was assured that the plugins code had not been modified. After some help in the #ltsp channel, I added set +x to the top of my script and set -x to the bottom, and this way saw specifically where the script was dying, which turned out to be due to another recent script that was smashing my own variables. This kind of thing happens because I've not uploaded the script upstream. Anyway, I tested the script and built a jaunty gnome evnironment which worked without problems. It was nice to see the quite significant speed increase one can get by using the script on modern netbooks with atom processors. As always, copy the script here and save to /usr/share/ltsp/plugins/ltsp-build-client/Ubuntu/030-fatclient
