If you're talking about your laptop's built-in keyboard, all you really need is the right keyboard layout profile in your OS. I don't know how it works on Windows, but Mac and Linux are both easy for switching keyboard layout in software.
You don't have to touch your keyboard's controller to switch to Dvorak. The controller mods we talk about here are for creating custom layers.
The only annoying thing about switching layout on a laptop is trying to do the same to the caps. Not all laptop keyboards are cap swappable. My old PowerBook is, but modern Apple keyboards aren't, as far as I can tell. Could be true elsewhere.

I understand that you are using your Dvorak keyboard on many computers and laptops and would like to permanently alter the controller of the keyboard, so that you don't have to switch layout to Dvorak on the OSs of the varios computers.
First -- I'm not sure if this works fully. All you can do in the controller is more or less swap physical keys. If that's enough for your purpose, then I guess it could work.
Anyway. If your keyboard is PS/2, the easiest way will probably be Soarers converter. Using that, you can fully program which key should create which key code.

I think he means, moving a keyboard between different computers.
A few keyboards are switchable themselves (e.g. Kinesis).
There is a USB converter
QIDO.
There is a PS/2 converter project
here.

My computer is still there is ps/2,but I often switch to laptop
I already know QIDO, but I much prefer on the keyboard
I ever read the WASD keyboard v2, can change the layout with dip switches

There is also this option to enable USB to USB remapping:

Found it back in my bookmarks, but did not re-read it again. As far as I can remember, it should work (perhaps with a bit of work though).
Keep us informed,

No, I am no longer searching. I think that is the solution I will implement ... when other projects will be completed

HPE works on PS/2 as well as USB, right? So HPE -> passive PS/2 adapter ->
my converter.
Poker is USB only (and NKRO, which means
USB->USB won't work yet). So controller replacement... but, the stock controller is soldered onto the main PCB, so this is difficult and likely destructive.

I don't know. But it doesn't matter, because it will convert externally

No tutorial as such. There is documentation for my converter in the latest 'full' zip file.

hi soare,i've download
v.1.0
v1.10
v1.11
how to open file her

Posted: 09 Jun 2013, 16:39
by Soarer
Unpack the v1.10 zip somewhere, then open docs\index.html.
I don't do a tutorial because there are many different ways to make it. But MrInterface did a
video of how he made it
Also, if you look through the
GH thread some people have posted pictures of their builds - some in boxes, some in keyboards, some on breadboard.

sorry soares,I'm confused
how directly to the main points,i need permanetly dvorak layout on my keyboard
if not can?
thanks

See configs\dvorak.sc - it's just a text file, open it in notepad, or drag it onto your web browser.
When that's loaded into the converter, any keyboard plugged into the converter will use dvorak.
