this requires editing your xorg.conf file. after you do this, you will be able to log into gnome using EITHER qwerty or dvorak
you will probably already have this option
Option "XkbLayout" "dvorak" OR
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
change it to this.
Option "XkbLayout" "dvorak,us"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:shift_toggle"
Once you do that, restart x using ctrl-alt-backspace.. now when the gnome login screen comes up, you can hit both shift keys to change keyboard layouts. that way anyone who doesn't know dvorak, can still log into your computer, without the stress of trying to figure out how to type their name.
