Hi Weaver,
If you are curious about keyboard layouts then you might really enjoy
Dvorak. I have used Dvorak for about 8 years. It takes a while to get
rolling, but it has definitely been worth it. I feel like typing is a
much smoother activity now, and touch typing is easier.

I've never used Dvorak and I was never properly trained to touch type.
But after sitting at a computer 40 hours a week for two years, I finally
began to look away from the keyboard. And my typing speed just gets
faster with time.

On the console,
loadkeys /usr/local/share/keymaps/dvorak.map
although the location of this file seems to have changed at some point.
It used to be
/usr/lib/kbd/keytables/dvorak.map.
In X, you'll need put the appropriate file in ~/.Xmodmap.
