==== Notes

* Currently ships without a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth driver
* https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SDDM#KDE_Plasma_Wayland_hangs_on_shutdown_and_reboot[system hangs on reboot/shutdown] (SDDM bug, workaround possible)
* https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=18313[screen rotated 90°, workaround possible]
* https://github.com/ScottFreeCode/Pine64-Arch/tree/master/PKGBUILDS/pine64/alsa-ucm-pinetab2[HP/Speaker switching via Alsa UCM]
* The latest version ships with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers disabled, because these are unstable. The drivers can be manually enabled from the command line:

Run this command to enable Wi-Fi for a single session (until the next time you reboot your PineTab):

$ sudo modprobe bes2600

Run the following commands to enable Wi-Fi automatically at every boot:

$ sudo -i
> echo bes2600 | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/bes2600.conf
> exit

Run the following commands to enable Bluetooth for a single session (until the next time you reboot your PineTab) https://www.reddit.com/r/PINE64official/comments/1akjlwu/tutorial_wifi_and_bluetooth_on_pinetab_2/[(source)]:

$ sudo pacman -S bluez-deprecated-tools
> sudo -i
> echo ifname:bt cmd:BT_ON > /dev/bes2600
> rfkill unblock bluetooth
> hciattach -s 1500000 /dev/ttyS1 any 1500000 flow nosleep
> hciconfig hci0 up
> exit
> sudo systemctl enable bluetooth

* The original factory image did not ship with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers. If your PineTab is still on an older kernel version (check `uname -a`, it should show 6.6.13 or newer), you can update the kernel using `pacman -Syu` and a supported Wi-Fi dongle, or flash the latest version of the factory image.
* System hangs on reboot/shutdown (Wi-Fi / Bluetooth driver bug, only happens when the driver is enabled)
* https://github.com/ScottFreeCode/Pine64-Arch/tree/master/PKGBUILDS/pine64/alsa-ucm-pinetab2[HP/Speaker switching via Alsa UCM] - _Unsure if this is fixed or not_
