run "lsmod" to see all the modules loaded, many of which you do not need
because fedora, like most all linux distribs is written to be 'universal'.
that is 'one shoe fits all'.

in so doing, there are many modules loaded that you do not need.

use "modprobe" to remove what you do not need.

see "man lsmod" and "man modprobe", or "info lsmod" and "info modprobe".

also, you can rebuild kernel with what you need to help speed up boot.
