You don't need another driver, just load a new keyboard mapping (if you are using the default consoledriver syscons) like this: kbdcontrol -l us.dvorak Its as easy as that... X should inherit this from the console driver too... I think the dvorak map was added after 2.1, so you need either to run -current or get the us.dvorak file from a current system. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Soren Schmidt (sos@FreeBSD.org) FreeBSD Core Team So much code to hack -- so little time.
