login not possible
#1
so I got my PineTab2 and started to tinker around including creating a second admin account with a strong password and also changed the password for the default admin incl the kdewallet. All went well until I tried to login with the new admin account. it does not matter what I enter I am getting for both accounts "Login failed". so how can I reset that?

Thanks.

Root login is typically disabled in Arch (and discouraged), see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/securit...cting_root.

The login with your regular user should work, however if it doesn't I would just reflash the factory firmware, https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineTab2#Software
