Currently on a macbook pro (mid 2010) using pommed because nvidia-bl is no longer working for some reason. The brightness keys don't seem to work at all unless i am in a TTY, they have no effect in GDM or the DE (cinnamon). However, if I adjust the brightness while in a TTY, the brightness change stays when switching back to cinnamon or GDM. Also, there are only 3 brightness steps, how can I have more steps, and why does it not work in cinnamon/GDM?
Do you have a file pommed.conf? Could you paste it? If you have one, I believe there will be a line "step = 7", which can be changed to "step = 2" (for example) to give you more steps.
If you don't have a file pommed.conf, the thing to do is probably to create one (copying the appropriate template), and then change the step line as above.
As for GDM and cinnamon, I'm not sure what's going on, but my best guess would be that the DE is capturing the keypress and not passing it to pommed. There should be a place to remove any such keybindings in your DE, although I'm not sure where. (That's pure speculation, though. When testing in the DE, do you start pommed from TTY or from a terminal window?)
I no longer have a mac -- haven't for 6 years or so -- so my ability to maintain this software is severely limited. I'll do my best to help though :)
