After "emerge wifi-radar" I followed the emerge output instructions to add
/usr/sbin/wifi-radar to my /etc/sudoers file. I am able to run wifi-radar as
root with no problems. When I try to run /usr/bin/wifi-radar.sh as a user I
get "GtkWarning: could not open display" Is there another configuration
parameters I must change to allow users to run wifi-radar.sh?

EDit the /etc/sudoers file, and comment this line :
# Defaults env_reset
After that add this line :
Defaults env_keep=DISPLAY
I'm not a specialist of sudo, so i'm sure that comment the line "Defaults
env_reset" is absolutely necessary, but it's work for me.

Excuse me I would like to say : I'm NOT sure....
Added some more einfos in latest package version to propose the other changes
stated here to /etc/sudoers...
