Sebastien, I can reproduce the error in a Precise VM:

$ gconftool-2 -s /apps/onboard/horizontal_position -t int 10
$ sed -i "s/onboard.convert;//" ~/.local/share/gsettings-data-convert
$ gsettings-data-convert --file /usr/share/GConf/gsettings/onboard.convert
(gsettings-data-convert:25137): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 
'apps.onboard' does not contain a key named 'x'
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

There's clearly a problem with Onboard 0.97.x. 'onboard.convert'
references non-existent gsettings keys apps.onboard.x/y/width/height. I
let this slip through testing apparently.

The switch from gconf to gsettings came with Onboard 0.96, so this must
have been a migration from <=0.95 to 0.97, skipping 0.96. If I'm not
mistaken, upgrades from Oneiric and earlier to Precise had to be
affected. I can't really explain why we haven't heard of this issue
earlier.

Onboard 0.98 and later don't seem to be affected.
