Dear Forum
I am neither an experienced Linux nor a Flightradar User but I already had my first success yesterday :). I bought a Raspberry Pi3 and the ADS-B stick with a little antenna (I intend to install an antenna on our roof later but I want to try out first if it works). Thereafter I downloaded the image from FR24 (Latest version is 1.0.18-7 (2016-07-12)) and installed the image on the sd card. To configure Swiss Keyboard Layout and to activate the WLAN I had to work with SUDO commands (not an easy task for a well experienced Windows user ....) - happy to have google search !!
Well, the system seems to work (T-LSZH153 ..... yeeeaaa) and I am wondering how may flights have already been tracked with this little small antenna. What I still miss is a graphical user interface for Raspberry Pi to make changes even easier then working with SODO commands. I also intend to enable Remote Desktop (if possible) so that an external monitor is not needed anymore.
How do I activate GUI and is it possible to activate also RDS?
Thanks in advance for your support - please excuse this base question form a beginner.
