Numbering not every line with lineno

Question

How it is possible to number not every line with lineno?

For example only every fifth line.

There are no hints in the manual.

Page 2 of my copy of the manual mentions the modulo option: "Print line numbers only if they are multiples of five".

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[modulo]{lineno}
\linenumbers

\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}

\lipsum[1]

\end{document}

And the command \modulolinenumbers[4] changes from numbering every five lines to four. – egreg May 19 '12 at 17:25
