I just unboxed my pinetab and tried the Manjaro alpha 2 image with the same effect. Ubports on emmc works fine, but no video when booting from the SD card. Downloading mobian now and I'll try another SD card as well
Okay, so I switched to mobian on a different SD card. First boot attempt, no video out. I plugged into power and tried to boot, no luck. Long pressing the power button for 10-15 seconds to force power it off, and then booting again worked.
Reflashing the working mobian SD card with manjaro resulted in the same non-booting issue.
I'm thinking this might be 2 problems here.

- The occasional non-boot on mobian, fixable with a hard reboot. This is similar to some issues I've had with the PBP, where it seems to occasionally get in a weird power state.
- It looks like there may be an issue with the Manjaro Alpha 2 image booting on Pinetab.
