[demime could not interpret encoding  - treating as plain text]
Thanks.  Now I realize: I misunderstood how this works.

The man pages for the computer you're connecting from.  There are no
keyboard settings for connections that don't have keyboards.

Thank you for mentioning that, I feel like an idiot.  No keyboard 
attached.  I'm accessing the server in two ways, through the serial 
console and ssh connection.  What do I have to do to get dvorak 
working from serial and ssh?  What man pages should I read?

I'm using dvorak layout on console and on X.

On X I use custom xmodmap to get C$C6 -letters.

On console I have "keyboard.encoding=us.dvorak" on
/etc/wsconsctl.conf.

One downside is that it doesn't work straight with my
USB-keyboard and I need to manually load dvorak with
"sudo kbd us.dvorak" and it works just fine after that.

I'm using -current branch but it did work on 4.3-release
too. I didn't choose dvorak on installation but added it
later.

Are you directly connected to server with your keyboard
etc or do you take remote connection to it?

I still have no success trying all the advice given to me.  Dvorak 
is still not functional.  Anything else I should look into?  Please 
note, I'm trying to get this to work on the console.  This being a 
server, I don't have X running.  Below is what I tried:


wsconsctl keyboard.encoding=us.dvorak
   keyboard.encoding -> us.dvorak

the line above is how my OpenBSD 4.3 server responded but asdf jkl; 
still produces asdf jkl;


/etc/kbdtype
   us.dvorak

and I rebooted, still asdf jkl; produces asdf jkl;

I even tried this before I sent my original post:

wsconsctl.conf
  keyboard.encoding=us.dvorak

and I rebooted, but still asdf jkl; produces asdf jkl;

The one thing I did not try is selecting us.dvorak when installing 
OpenBSD but I don't want to recreate my server at this point in 
time for a dvorak layout.  But believe me, I'll definitely try it 
the next time I install OpenBSD.


Please, anything else I should look into?  For those who responded, 
I appreciate the help.  Don't be offended about my next question.  
For those who have dvorak running, is it on an OpenBSD 4.3 release--
not stable?  I generally try to keep my OpenBSD installations as 
default as possible--except dvorak if I can get it running.
