HowTo: Loading USB support modules.

I looked at HotPup to try to see how Dougal does it, but I couldn`t find it in the files.
I use to load the USB module with: modprobe usb-storage
The new module I noticed is called: usb_storage
But there`s other modules that seem to be associated with it.
This is the lsmod output associated with USB:

Code:

usbhid 26112 0
usb_storage 51584 0
squashfs 22928 1
uhci_hcd 21564 0
ehci_hcd 32856 0
usbcore 138160 5 usbhid,usb_storage,uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd

How squashfs got in the middle there I don`t know...
usbcore seems to list the 4 other associated modules, load them all?
Or just usbcore. Or only usb_storage as I use to do it?
This:

Code:

[ ! "`lsmod | grep usb_storage`" ]&& modprobe usb_storage

Or this:

Code:

[ ! "`lsmod | grep usbcore`" ]&& modprobe usbcore

Or load all 5 modules?
