As far as I can tell you are doing the right preparations, but I think
you have to ensure that appletouch is loaded before usbhid. That works
for me anyway. I'm on gentoo and I just ensure that they show up in that
order in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6.
Note: Occasionally (3 times so far) the touchpad has freaked on me
sending seemingly random mouse events. Reloading these modules works
(make sire it is a oneliner though!), but you will need to switch to a
text console and back to X to make it work properly.
BTW: I still have not found a perfectly stable suspend to work: suspend2
is pretty close and so is suspend to ram, but both of them soon or a
later will stumble on fglrx memory allocation issues. I currently use
suspend to ram since at least I have the option of killing X and
reloading the module whereas suspend2 will just die. That is sad since I
really prefer suspend2. I'm on a 32 bit kernel for now. I'd also like
to se the iSight camera survive a suspend cycle. Everything else I'm
reasonably happy with...
