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.

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.)
