I am having a bear of a time with Chromium so I figured I would see if Chrome worked any better so I download chrome and then tried to start it. Nothing happened. So I opened a terminal emulator and started it from there to see what errors would appear. Well, it seems to think chrome is running and so has locked the profile. How does one ulock a profile. I tried killing the process but that didn't work.

--error--
[5029:5029:0715/141134:ERROR:process_singleton_linux.cc(309)] The profile appears to be in use by another Google Chrome process (16915) on another computer (Presario-CQ57).  Chrome has locked the profile so that it doesn't get corrupted.  If you are sure no other processes are using this profile, you can unlock the profile and relaunch Chrome.
