Linux - Hardmod necessary?!

I have a dual-boot system WinXP/Fedora Core 3 Linux.

As far as I can ascertain, there is no softmod at all for Linux, so the only way to get eight rendering pipelines would be through the hardmod, as mentioned previously.

My question is this - in the xorg.conf file for X-Windows, you can virtually fool Linux into thinking you are using an 8 pipeline card...

Obviously Windows softmods make no hardware alterations, so do you think this would be enough to "softmod" Linux, in a way...??

Cheers,
