Re: DDvorak

You can use Xmodmap to use this keyboard map. Run `xmodmap -pke > /home/YOURUSERNAME/.xmodmaprc` and edit ~/.xmodmaprc to change all of the keys. If you are wondering what a specific key's number is you can use `xev`. Once you have edited the file, run `xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc`.

Re: DDvorak

Wow, that sounds really great, i mean that DDvorak Layout.
At least, its not a big problem to change the keys to the new Layout.

Only Thing that gives me headache is the dead Key.

On that site he does use "," which is normally the "E" key on standard layouts
as a dead key to access a lot of other signs and i just cannot get
that working.

Any Ideas on that?
