if you have ddcutil (libddcutil specifically) installed all screens will dim
(internal laptop and external monitors). even if it's just a plain desktop -
the same. all monitors will dim when idle then when you do something to take it
up will go back to the default backlight level. without ddcutil, regular
monitors cannot have their backlight controlled. this also may or may not work
depending on the monitor model and if they implement ddc controls for backlight.
