This is already fixed in 2.6.24, patch attached for your pleasure.

I'm afraid that the abituguru3 driver only supports reading sensors and 
sensors settings, the pwm part is completely unsupported, not even 
reading the settings is supported.

However one can usually fully tune the fan settings in Abit's BIOS, and 
if you can hear the fan I guess you're close enough to the machine to 
get into its BIOS setup :)
