The pinetab2 is set to stop you from logging in for 10 minutes if you mess up your password 3 times in a row.  Here is how to turn this off.

There is a file called  /run/faillock/<your login name>.  It is an empty file. Its presence causes this behaviour. You can  delete the file (use sudo) and that stops the 10 minute lockout.  No reboot needed.
