I am not sure how much support for this is at the much deeper system levels.
The new (systemd conformant) way to do this would use the "localectl" command,
but
localectl list-x11-keymap-models
(or -keymap-models) does not show anything that sounds even vaguely similar.
On my Leap 15.5, there are files that appear to be relevant below
/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/bepo:
fr-bepo-latin9.map.gz
fr-bepo.map.gz
But that whole directory is owned by package kbd-legacy which was declared
obsolete several releases ago and a candidate to be dropped soon. Maybe this
still works for the text console (outside of the graphical desktop
environment):
loadkeys fr-bepo
/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.xml (owned by package xkeyboard-config) also has
some entries that point into that general direction:
> <variant>
> <configItem>
> <name>bepo</name>
> <description>French (Bepo, ergonomic, Dvorak way)</description>
> </configItem>
> </variant>
> <variant>
> <configItem>
> <name>bepo_latin9</name>
> <description>French (Bepo, ergonomic, Dvorak way, Latin-9 only)</description>
> </configItem>
> </variant>
You could try the keyboard selector of your desktop environment (KDE Plasma,
GNOME, Xfce etc.). There are several dozens of keyboard models, but I don't
know which of those might be Dvorak keyboards to check if any of them have a
"Bepo" layout.
