sensors-detect is not going to find your fan, as it is controlled
through BIOS/ACPI and is not manually configurable by using  PWM like a
fan attached to a desktop motherboard fan header.

The real issue here is that your system is running so hot (which causes
the fan to run full speed to prevent hardware damage). My educated guess
is that the opensource radeon driver is causing your GPU (and
subsequently, the CPU and other internals) to heat up. Try using the
proprietary AMD fglrx/Catalyst driver and see if the temps come down.
