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.
