Bug Description
I noticed that removing usb wireless modules, for example, does not turn
off the devices.
This is important for laptops. Devices, when not in use, should be
turned off.
I think this is caused by kernel not being built with devices->USB
support->USB selective suspend/resume and wakeup (USB_SUSPEND) enabled.
Not sure here however.
Regards.

What version of kernel version are you using?
Also, can somebody find the package that this affects... I thought it would be linux-image or kernel something, but I couldn't find it in the choose package interface
