enforce system-wide custom values for gsettings keys.</p>
</comment>
- <p>Here are three procedures describing how to <em>dim screens after X minutes</em>.
- Power management settings are controlled by gsettings keys, so there are three
- key-values pairs to be set.</p>
+ <p>By setting the following GSettings keys, you can configure the drop in
+ the brightness level, and set brightness level and idle time.</p>
-<section id="drop-in-brightness-level">
+ <listing>
<title>Set the drop in the brightness level</title>
- <p>Firstly, you need to set the drop in the brightness level when the
- device has been idle for some time.</p>
+ <desc>To set the drop in the brightness level when the
+ device has been idle for some time, create a <sys>local</sys> database for
+ machine-wide settings in <file>/etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-power</file>,
+ as in the following example:</desc>
+ <code>[org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power]
+idle-dim=<input>true</input></code>
+ </listing>
- <list>
- <item><p>In the terminal, run the
- <cmd>gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power idle-dim true</cmd>
- command.</p></item>
- </list>

+ <listing>
<title>Set brightness level</title>
- <p>Then, you might want to change the brightness level:</p>
- <list>
- <item><p>In the terminal, run the
- <cmd>gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power idle-brightness 30</cmd> command.</p></item>
- </list>
-</section>
+ <desc>To change the brightness level, create a <sys>local</sys> database for
+ machine-wide settings in <file>/etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-power</file>,
+ as in the following example, and replace <var>30</var> with the integer value
+ you want to use:
+ </desc>
+ <code>[org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power]
+idle-brightness=<var>30</var></code>
+ </listing>
+
+ <listing>
+ <title>Set idle time</title>
+ <desc>To set the idle time after which the screen must be blanked and the
+ default screensaver displayed, create a <sys>local</sys> database for
+ machine-wide settings in <file>/etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-session</file>,
+ as in the following example, and replace <var>900</var> with the integer value
+ you want to use:</desc>
+ <code>[org/gnome/desktop/session]
+idle-delay=<var>900</var></code>
+ </listing>
+ <p>Incorporate your changes into the system databases by running the
+ <cmd>dconf update</cmd> command as root.</p>

- <p>And finally, this following procedure sets the idle time after which the

- <item><p>In the terminal, run the
- <cmd>gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay uint32 900</cmd> command.</p></item>
