Hi, if you disabled USB completely, there are no modules to load. If you did enable USB as module, then the needed modules will be usbcore, ehci_hcd or ohci_hcd. However, if you load a module such as usb_storage or a driver for a USB device, all the modules needed for USB to work should be loaded automatically.

Yes...I know that...Actually i disabled the USB support from my kernel...After that, i want to make USB to work by dynamically loading the necessary modules.....After that only it should work. What to do for that?..What are all the modules needed for that? Now i am having the kernel without USB support...Now i have to Enable the USB support by myself without without rebuilding the kernel with USB support.
