It seems that your nautilus is set to run it in gedit. You might try the following: Go to the Edit menu of a nautilus window and choose Preferences. In the Behaviour tab, set the option "Executable text files" to "Ask each time."
This should solve your problem, as it will ask you whether you would like to run it, when you try to open /usr/bin/onboard. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to onboard in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1376764 Title: on-screen keyboard not available in 14.10 Final Beta Status in “onboard” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Activating the on-screen keyboard in the settings menu has no effect. Trying to manually execute /usr/bin/onboard via pointing-and-clicking opens up gedit (i.e., it's not recognised as an executable). No other keyboard input is available for the device in question, so further tests via command line (such as confirming that `python /usr/bin/onboard' starts onboard normally) are not feasible. Thus, 14.10 final beta is bootable but completely unusable on some tablet devices (Surface Pro 3 here). (Filing against `onboard' because this might be an `onboard' installation issue.)
