-  <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>

   <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>

-  <p>Then, you might want to change the brightness level:</p>

-  <item><p>In the terminal, run the
-  <cmd>gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power idle-brightness 30</cmd> command.</p></item>
-  </list>

+  <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>

+  <p>Incorporate your changes into the system databases by running the
+  <cmd>dconf update</cmd> command as root.</p>
