Martijn,
I'm not familiar with Dutch lamp modules, but if they're like most of the US modules, they probably don't support Preset Dim or Leviton Dim features. These two features are nice, as they provide the ability to specify an absolute dim level.
Standard X10 Dimming should work for lamp modules. However, this type of dimming must be done using the HouseBot X10 Controller module.
Once you've created an X10 Controller Device in HouseBot, you will need to set the Composite Property of that Device to something like P;1;Bright;5 (this is just an example) to control dimming. Refer to the online help for the format specifics on sending Dim commands.
