What are the gain and key settings on the initial screen of dump 1090. Am I misssing something?

The system uses rx_tools to run use SoapySDR compatible devices with Dump1090, and the script is asking for the device string and key. Those depend on what is connected to your machine but the key should be "0" if only one device is connected.

Hi all
I installed Skywave Linux v3.1.1 on bootable USB, which I connected to an RTL-SDR R820T2 dongle and works quite well with CubicSDR and Gqrx
But I was trying to use Dump1090 and it does not connect to the web page 127.0.0.1:8888
So I ran the ./dump1090.sh command from path: /usr/local/sbin
and I receive the following errors:
Gtk-Message: "canberra-gtk-module" The module could not be loaded
Gtk-Message: "topmenu-gtk-module" The module could not be loaded
Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
any suggestions?
Thank you
