I tried revision 1627 from the PPA (0.99.0+1627-0ppa~saucy1). I am running Kubuntu Saucy in VirtualBox. And it is crashing for me, too. The output from the terminal is:

When I launch Onboard, it crashes. It usually crashes on launch but I think there was one time where it didn't crash until I pressed the first key. While I'm on the subject, could onboard be made a bit more user-friendly and simple? Like the iPad?
