What version of gpg do you have?  Older versions don't support
searching with a keyid.  I believe this change made it into gnupg
1.4.6, so if you're using something older than that, searching an HKP
keyserver using the keyid with prefixing 0x doesn't usually work.

Try gpg --search-keys 0xED0E1FB7 and see if that works better.  You
can also use gpg --interactive --recv-keys ED0E1FB7.
