Hello Robert, Adding more information below, which I did after the dmesg and grep. I saw only one sensor input, but it's better than none, and thank you once again. I'm not sure how useful this information is, but I'm adding it here just in case it's useful to your debugging as to where the other inputs went. (Btw, the 1 lux value looks reasonable as it's in a relatively dark place right now.) Much thanks again.
