I tried to create a ticket, but I couldn't locate it after I created it.
I used to use old userspace tools with my 2.6.* kernel. When updating to
2.6.5, I noticed that I would need the newer lm_sensors 2.8.6. I tried to
change as little as possible in the transition, and I compiled the i2c modules
for the new kernel as expected.
Here are the modules that I have loaded (based on advice from sensors-detect):

As you can probably see from this ticket, I am having trouble with sensors -s.

I have noticed myself that I can't even create these files, for I, even as root, am denied access. There are a few files in these directories, some even had similar names
root devices # ls 4-0049/ 4-0048/ 4-002d/
4-002d/:
alarms fan2_min in1_input in4_max temp1_input
beep_enable fan2_pwm in1_max in4_min temp1_max
beep_mask fan2_pwm_enable in1_min in5_input temp1_max_hyst

fan2_input in0_ref in4_input power vrm
4-0048/:
detach_state name power
4-0049/:

I hope someone can point me to the source of the problem. Thanks in advance for your help
