Your configuration doesn't autoload modules when one plugs a USB
device (e.g. a flash drive) in. You need to add "modalias" rules for this.

I don't really understand.. the official way to do things now is loading modules manually via modprobe at startup, right? with udev and udev rules, do I have to touch modprobe.conf at all anymore? (or if modalias is another udev feature, could you please provide an example for me to copy?)

Look at example RedHat rules, serach for "modalias". If this thingy is not obvious after that:

Look at a real alias for some PCI device, e.g.:

$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:0d.0/modalias

Then look at /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.alias
