You can imagine how annoying and extremely difficult to work with, when it randomly changed my brightness to extremes. OS - Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 Had tried on 15.10 as well. GNOME - 3.18.2/3/4; Didn't work on any of them. Kernel - 4.4.0-22-generic [1] http://askubuntu.com/q/776454/314138 PS - 1. Is 'gnome-shell' the correct place or should i file it in 'gnome-control-center'? 2. People trying to reproduce the buggy-ness of Auto Brightness feature may have to do a bit of trial-error since it sometimes stays static...
