The password of Jetson TX2 was reset and forgotten by the previous user, the default user “nvidia” and “ubuntu” do not work. My question is how to recover the password of it and do I need a laptop installed with the lastest version of ubuntu? Thank you.

Hello, the problem is now solved. After several trials on different virtual machine, I finally flashed TX2 with the Jetpack OS, which is actually an operating system that I don’t know previously. Thank you for support. Kind regards
