OLPC keyboard layouts
English (US international); Spanish (Argentine); Portuguese (Brazilian); Amharic (Ethiopic); Arabic; West African; French; Thai; Urdu; Cyrillic; Turkish; Nepali; Mongolian; Kazakh; Devanagari; Uzbek; Pashto; Dari
Console keyboard layout files are in /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386. Set the console layout thus, in bash (Ctl+Alt+F1, and log in as root with no password; Alt+F3 to get back to Sugar):
loadkeys dvorak loadkeys us
X keyboard layout files are in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols. Set the X layout thus, from the Developer Console (Alt+= or Alt+0 to toggle back and forth)
setxkbmap dvorak setxkbmap us
The layout switching key (misnamed the language key) is times-divide, just above right arrow. On Arabic and some other XOs it has a different graphic, indicating two alphabets to switch between.
In the Arabic layout, it is defined as
// Language key
key <I219> { [ ISO_Next_Group, ISO_Prev_Group ] }
In the International US English layout, it is defined as
key <I219> {[ multiply, division,ISO_Next_Group,ISO_Prev_Group ]}
Some current layouts, including Dvorak, fail to define a language key.
