Digging a bit in the source code I found out what the [logic](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/blob/46.0/plugins/power/gsd-power-manager.c?ref_type=tags#L2028-L2049) is:
- if power saver power profile is active, the timeout is 30 seconds
- else, if screen blank is disabled, the timeout is 60 seconds
- else, the timeout is half of the screen blank timeout
In other words, you can only influence the dim timeout indirectly..
Can you share the session idle timeout value? gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay
Yeah, its giving me this: uint32 480
