Directions have been copied from here https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm-guest-session/+question/48970thanks to David D Lowe. "Open /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-setup.sh as root: sudo gedit /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-setup.sh Find the following lines: su guest <<EOF gconftool --set --type bool /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/screensaver/start_screensaver False gconftool --set --type bool /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/screensaver/active False EOF Before the second EOF, add this line: gconftool --set --type list --list-type string /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd/layouts [us,us"`echo "\tdvorak"`"] This will make the default layout US Qwerty, with US Dvorak as a secondary keyboard.
