Just to make sure: you're running pwmconfig as root, aren't you? Only
root can change the chip's settings.

Can you try setting the PWM output to manual mode manually?

echo 1 > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/pwm1_enable
cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/pwm1_enable
echo 1 > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/pwm2_enable
cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/pwm2_enable

If it works then the problem is in the pwmconfig script (or bash). If
it doesn't then the problem would be in the w83627ehf driver.
