I have this in my ~/.profile

# keyboard pref
setxkbmap us dvorak-classic

Yesterday I booted on a Dell laptop and it worked - it started up with the
layout I want.

Now I'm on my netbook and it's ignored. But, if I type exactly the same
command by hand in xterm, it works!

I'm hard pressed to imagine why it would not work in the profile, but just
on this machine?

Must be something I don't understand about the keyboard model.

Thanks!
James
