Going by GUI here, due to the lack of keyboard.  I'm not sure which two files you meant, but /usr/bin/onboard and /usr/bin/python* all are a+x.
I can start some programs from nautilus (such as xterm) just fine, but python programs always fire up gedit.

I'm fine with that behaviour of nautilus, to be clear, but at the very
least the `On Screen Keyboard' setting under `Universal Access' ought to
activate the on-screen keyboard.  Unfortunately I don't have a
keyboarded desktop utopic-unicorn in reach to check this against.

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.)
