Summary: Missing dialogue window to enter root password => wifi-radar: Missing dialogue window to enter root password
MGA7-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50 No installation issues. Started wifi-radar from menu, asks root password, then shows all Wifi connections in my neighbourhood with the channels these are using. Looks the same as I get with inssider on Win10. OK for me.
