Hi,

probably you can run it without root doing this:

1. Edit the file hacks/glx/sonar-icmp.c
2. Goto line 1130 and remove the "getuid() == 0 &&" from the if
3. Change the socket RAW (SOCK_RAW) to DGRAM (SOCK_DGRAM)

Datagram sockets can be used for some ICMP messages, like "ping"
(echo) without root.

You probably need to change some things more, like the with SUID_EXEC
in the Makefile,... but I think the code in sonar can be changed.

Cheers,
kix
