What would it be checking against? There's no central signing authority the way there is with Windows. (I mean I guess a distro could implement that but then how would I load my own custom modules?)
The kernel provides the option to embed a signing key for kernel modules at compile time. But (AFAIK) you'll need to compile your own kernel to go that route.

Naive question: does Linux check checksum of loaded modules? If not I could just replace them and voila?
