Re: Re Tame 5.7 etc

My problem is specifically associated with XY4 under Tame. Without Tame
I can enter and exit standby without any problem. (That said, I have
seen problems in the past. At one point my system would never enter
standby. Only when I had a problem with an internal modem and removed
it did I discover that it was this which was preventing the system
entering standby.)
Actually, further to my initial report I have now found that when XY4
under Tame is running, standby doesn't initialise either.
