X comes with a basic dvorak keyboard layout. Maybe a look at
setxkbmap will help you solve your issue. For me
$ setxkbmap -symbols 'en_US(pc105)+dvorak'
does the job (en_US to get the cursor keys and anything else, dvorak
for the different character mapping).
With some guessing and reading of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/README.XKB-*
you can tell X to switch keyboard layouts on a certain key
combination.
If you use KDE, you can set up layouts here:
Settings -> Control Center -> Regional & Accesibility -> Keyboard Layout
Kind regards,
