Tom,

  Yes, it's a linux box. And /dev/shm/ does have incorrect permissions
(755). Thanks to your response I remembered that chromium does not run until
I follow its advice to chmod 1777 /dev/shm. Sure enough, chromium would not
load.

  So, I changed the perms on /dev/shm/ and now both postgres and chromium
work.

Very much appreciated,

Rich
