Bug Description

Trying to use the sonar xscreensaver, i get the no suid error, so i fixed that, but sonar output still do not show any host, whatever if local range, goolgle and other sites or even fake.

After some debug i found that by clicking in advance i could see the command line and after some tests i found that -font 1 is the problem, the font is too small and fail to show. replacing with -font 10 will fix the problem

Do not know where the -font 1 is inserted, but it needs to be replaced with a bigger font site
