Interesting. No way to get them back to 777? I really wonder what caused
that in the first place.

I guess that even with normal permissions (which by the way I'd like you
to show us) your "sensors -s" problem is still there?

Well, that was supposed to work ;) The common (and unsolved so far)
problem is that people can write to the files using "echo" but not
through libsensors (which sensors uses).

OK, thanks for confirming this.

Yes it does. From what I can see there, you have a second i2c bus (a
real one, as opposed to the isa emulation). Looks like there is much
trouble on this second adapter. It is probably a completely different
problem though. That said, please tell us what that second i2c bus is
and what chips are present here, just in case there is some kind of
interaction between both problems.

Back to the initial problem, I'd like you to strace "sensors -s". I put
a trap in there some times ago, maybe it'll confirm my suspicions.
