I experience the same problem at the moment with tyan S2466N. I can get 
the sensor data but can't control the fans :(((
And I trying to get work since 3 days, I write letter even to my 
motherboard manufactur, but first I need to go through some insane 
process until I can contact with them so good luck!
If you can control them from windows with speedfan thats a good sign 
man, because I can't :(
Try motherboard monitor too.
