You would see that with the "sensors" command, not with pwmconfig (the asus driver does not support manual fan control, so pwmconfig will not work). Second question is if you actually _need_ manual fan control. The automatic fan control implemented in NCT6776F is pretty good, and it should be enabled by default. Do you have any problems with it ? If you do have problems with automatic fan control, the only remedy I can see would be for someone to implement manual fan control in asus_atk0110. Not sure if that is even possible, though.
