Bug Description
The "Dim screen when inactive" doesn't work for me - at least when I use the Gnome X session (haven't tried Wayland). The screen dims after a few seconds, even when "Dim screen when inactive" is set to "OFF".

Did I file this bug in the correct component/project?
This is more than a cosmetic issue because when reading documents in the train or in other places where no AC power is available, it requires me to move the mouse all the time or read with reduced screen brightness.. (which again on the train might be problematic because of sunlight)
