So, I have the latest version 16 of the software on a pi4 8gb (queued at the opo-up store in Oxfford st) and have a few problems as I need to edit some configs to get the car pi hat + idrive working and the 7.9" screen needs some settings changed however:
1) cannot ssh in as the password seems to be different to raspberry pw/ in version 16, keep getting denied, I have not changed it (couldn't if I wanted to lol)
2) cannot edit the config.txt as locked on a mac (generic but any tips welcome)
3) cannot really do anything on a keyboard and seperate screen as left/right arrows don't work, no wifi (why disable this?) so wpa supplicant not working... going to try another keyboard and maybe a generic touch screen??? even when I have managed to open terminal on the machine with a second monitor and a two different keyboards that will not let me use right / left arrows, the sudo command is rejected as a bad command?
I run about 10 pi's with everything from home assistant to enviro and even an autopi, why is this so hard? have I just been unlucky on SSH?
Should I reinstall the software is this just too funky? re SSH or has the p/w changed in version 16? how is the wi-fi disabled and easiest way to re-enable, the car has a wi-fi hotspot and is parked where there is wi-fi, so creating a hotspot does not make sense, despite the fact pretty much all operators are removing tethering / throttling tethering on data plans these days: tethering is the surest way to get slow smartphone data!
