Clearing up #2: Power management

Hi guys, I imagine this is one of those really simple ones.

Clean download of most recent 64bit Q4OS onto both my Asus E200H,

In default settings, the screen dims after a few minutes. Issues:

1. The dimming happens when I'm on a Zoom call. I've had the same problem with other distros.
2. The screen stays dim until I reboot. It doesn't respond to keyboard or mouse input. This appears to be specific to Q4OS.

I don't need screen dimming. What's the best way to permanently disable the feature in Q4OS? There seem to be a few different routes in the control panel but I'd be happiest with a simple console command.

Best, W.
