The conjecture is not known for any other surfaces.

I'll throw out that there are other known recipes for constructing all pseudo-Anosov mapping classes using train track representatives; see for example my paper "The classification of pseudo-Anosovs", and the Bestvina-Handel paper "Train-tracks for surface homeomorphisms". However, none of these can be regarded as positive evidence for Penner's conjecture.
