PinePhone Pin/password question
#1
It seems to me that when I try to change my password via the terminal, it also changes the PIN needed to unlock the phone, am I wrong? If so, how do you deal with a "complex" password?

Example:

PIN was, 12345 when I changed my password via passwd to "Ihatewindows" in the shell, the PIN 12345 no longer unlocks the phone.

Is there a better way to do this, or is it a limitation of m@bain?

Thanks,
Denis
