Yes, there are many more drivers disabled.

At OLPC we chose to enable the drivers that are needed, and leave
deployments to enable other drivers.  This was to shrink filesystem;
very important on XO-1 and early XO-1.5, but not important now for
XO-1.75 and XO-4.

No, there's no way to find out what drivers are needed, except by
audit or survey of all users.

You might compare /boot/config* between Fedora and OLPC kernel, and
add whatever Fedora has enabled.
