Title:
  on-screen keyboard requires expert knowledge to launch in 14.10 Final
  Beta

Status in Onboard on-screen keyboard:
  Fix Committed
Status in “onboard” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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.)
