>From the Gnome desktop, use the system -> preferences -> keyboard -> layouts menu to select "USA Dvorak" (a regrettable compromise) or "USA Classic Dvorak" (the original and best). Just use whatever keyboard you presently are using. Print out a copy of the Dvorak or Dvorak Classic layout, and then refer to the printout and ignore the keycaps. It does not take many hours to learn the layout, because Dvorak designed it to be intuitive (at least, for those whose native language is English). Don't become discouraged during the first few hours. Remember that the QWERTY layout was purposely designed to slow the typist. It is claimed that almost any random key arrangement is easier for the typist than is the QWERTY layout.
