according to man xorg.conf:
Xorg uses a configuration file called xorg.conf
for its initial setup.
This configuration file is searched for in
the following places when
the server is started as a normal user:
/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/<cmdline>
/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/$XORGCONFIG
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/xorg.conf
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf.<hostname>
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf-4
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf
I always just stick it in /etc/ .
Anyway, I don't remember where I finally found this
answer since it isn't mentioned in man xorg.conf: so
here, for a model, is the pertenant section of my
xorg.conf you can use as a model:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Option "XkbLayout" "dvorak"
Driver "kbd"
EndSection
I hope this helps.
