[LINUX] VRS X Setup Guide

Pre-start checklist 
 
 Make sure your OS has kernel 5.0 or newer 
 Make sure OpenSSL 1.1.1 or 3.0+ (supporting TLS 1.2/1.3) is installed. 
 
 Sudo is not necessary to start VRS X up, but to set up systemd service 
 
 Download zip file from the link given in e-mail, for example linux-arm64.zip 
 Unzip the file using command unzip linux-arm64.zip (or -x64 if on Intel/AMD machine) 
 Enter the directory using command cd linux-arm64 (or -x64 if on Intel/AMD machine) 
 Make binary executable using command chmod +x VRSX 
 Start it up: ./VRSX for desktop version, ./VRSX --headless for headless mode 
 Enter IP.OF.YOUR.MACHINE:8085 and provide licence key provided in an email 
 
 Your instance is ready to go! 
 Set up systemd service, sudo is necessary! 
 Assuming, you are using youruser user on machine and VRS X is unzipped into your home directory, for example /home/youruser/linux-arm64/, you can simply follow the instructions below, but overwrite youruser` with a real username in your OS 
 
 Create a systemd service file sudo touch /etc/systemd/system/vrsx.service 
 Copy and paste the service configuration using for example nano ( sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/vrsx.service :

# If your system is RHEL-based, for example Rocky Linux/CentOS, please remove ExecStart line above and uncomment the line below to avoid issues with SELinux:

 Make sure you have overwritten youruser with your username and removed all comments (after ##) 
 Reload systemd using command sudo systemctl daemon-reload 
 Start and enable VRS X service using command sudo systemctl enable vrsx --now 
 Visit your VRS X instance on port 8085 (i.e. 192.168.100.100:8085) and activate it using the licence key given in "MY Account" section in ADS-B.Pro RadarView
