I don't recommend switching, but if you've done it before and inclined to do so, open DrakConf/Control Center, choose Hardware, then Keyboard, and choose Dvorak (US). This will set the default keyboard to Dvorak. If you want to switch occasionally (as I do when using my qwerty-typing wife's computer) I switch the keyboard maps with aliases that do the following: loadkeys /usr/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/dvorak/dvorak.kmap and loadkeys /usr/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/us.kmap It's equally simple to change the layout in Winsux or on a Mac.
