USB modules are supposed to be removed automatically, but you can configure
additional modules in  /etc/default/acpi-support file (see MODULES
variable).

Or if you want to help with testing test packages of powersave/kpowersave,
you may try to install packages mentioned in this thread:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-devel/2006-March/000910.html

They work nicely for me, but not yet polished for the case of both GNOME and
KDE on the same system.
Note: it is not clear if these packages will get into universe (at least in
current form) and/or if we would be able to replace existing buggy
klaptopdaemon...
