As I mentioned on G+, it's almost definitely a kernel/distro config/device issue, as USB wake from suspend is working perfectly well for the Asus/HP ChromeBox (panther/zako) on other setups (OpenELEC, Fedora). Since you're using Ubuntu, ubuntuforums.com would be a good starting point I'd expect.

I then selected #5 when it was finsihed I inserted usb stick with boot image for ubutnu 14.04; rebooted and installed ubuntu replacing all of chrome.

I've been told by the author that seabios does not handle wake on usb and it is most likely a firmware issue (or kernel issue). I'm unsure if anyone else on this mailing list runs ubuntu or if they ahve the same issue.

I have a chrombox (asus 2995u) that in setup last weekend using coreboot and
seabios fix to install linux (ubuntu 14.04) The system runs fine with one flaw
and I can't find the fix; it only wakes from suspend if I hit the power button -
usb devices (mouse, keyboard, ...) does not wake the system. Given that I
installed it last weekend (~Aug 9) I thought it carried the wake from usb fix
that was added in july are there any suggestion for fix or work around ?
