It was distributed, but nobody replied.

This is expected. sensors-detect doesn't know anything about ACPI.

The "fan" ACPI driver never provides fan speed anyway, nor does it let
you change it. In the best case, it can tell you whether the fan is on
or off, and that's about it.

As this is an Asus laptop, you might give a try to the asus_atk0110
ACPI driver. It should load automatically though, and apparently it did
not. Maybe your kernel is too old: you need kernel 2.6.30 or later, and
I think Fedora 11 has 2.6.29.
Or maybe your laptop simply doesn't implement the ATK0110 interface. In
that case, the coretemp driver output is the best thing you can have on
this laptop.
