This may be where you are mistaken - acls are not an FS/formatting option, 
they are a mount-time option.
to make them work on (for example) your /tmp filesytem you must mount it with 
the acl option turrned on. As a temporary measure:
    mount -o remount,acl /tmp
should do it.
Then try your setfacl commands
as a permanent measure you need to add the 'acl' option to your fstab file (eg 
instead of 'defaults') - giving a line like:
LABEL=/tmp  /tmp  ext3  acl  1 2
instead of
LABEL=/tmp  /tmp  ext3  defaults  1 2
