Public bug reported:

Since I have upgraded to 15.04 a couple of days ago, the screen
brightness automatically dims after a few seconds that I don't touch the
keyboard or touchpad, when running on battery.

This didn't use to happen before the upgrades on 14.04. So I've checked the settings and found this:
  "Dim screen to save power"
which was turned on (if it's a new setting, that makes sense; if this setting already existed, then there's a bug in dist-upgrade if it gets changed).

I DISABLED the setting, but the screen keeps dimming from time to time.
