There are currently five English Dvorak layout variants
1. The ANSI Dvorak layout commonly known as "dvorak" on your Trisquel OS.
2. The original layout by Dr. August Dvorak "dvorak-classic".
3. Programmer's Dvorak "dvp"
4. The right/left-handed layout "dvorak-r" or "dvorak-l"
If your default keyboard is qwerty then you could try dvorak layout by the following methods:
Trisquel-Menu -> system settings -> keyboard layout -> layout(tab)
click on the + button and search your desired layout;
Or if you prefer gnome-terminal or xterm try these
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvorak
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvorak-classic
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvpk
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvorak-r
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvorak-l
optional layouts
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvorak-intl
$ setxkbmap us -variant dvorak-alt-intl
The variants can be found in the following file /usr/share/X11/xkb/us
For tty terminals "setxkbmap" command cannot be used.
The "loadkeys" command can only use the ANSI Dvorak layout.
$ loadkeys dvorak
For permanantly using dvorak layout on your Trisquel OS
edit the following file
/etc/default/keyboard
replace the text in the file with
# Check /usr/share/doc/keyboard-configuration/README.Debian for
# documentation on what to do after having modified this file.
# The following variables describe your keyboard and can have the same
# values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options
# in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT="dvorak-classic" # your prefered variant
XKBOPTIONS=""
# If you don't want to use the XKB layout on the console, you can
# specify an alternative keymap. Make sure it will be accessible
# before /usr is mounted.
# KMAP=/etc/console-setup/defkeymap.kmap.gz
