Looking at the menu option I suggested above on a clean install from the

since I don't use it so much. Unfortunately the beta2 disc image is 7MB
oversize already.
Lars, and all:
I installed Lubuntu 13.10 Beta2 today, and checked out the situation
relative to using the Dvorak keyboard layout.
First, it does let you specify the Dvorak keyboard layout as the
default. That's good.
After the install, all was fine in that regard.
There is a taskbar applet for switching the keyboard layout. I tried to
set it up so I could switch back to the Qwerty layout if the need
arises, but it ended up switching it to Qwerty, with no way to switch it
back to Dvorak (very bad).
So I used Synaptic Package Manager to install lxkeymap, and I removed
the taskbar layout switcher (and set the radio button to only use the
default layout from the install).
Apparently lxkeymap (which you have to manually install) is still the
only way to switch keyboard layouts in Lubuntu.
