Title:
The automatic screen brightness oscillates on dell latitude 5450
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The automatic screen brightness feature under power settings doesn't
work properly. It keeps oscillating between two levels of brightness
on my laptop and is very annoying. I turned it off and it stopped
oscillating. I also plug in a HDMI cable to a TV/Monitor and it
doesn't do that anymore but probably it's because I also close the
laptop so the camera doesn't have much light coming into it. Thank you
for looking into the problem.
