it might be running under an elevated process by accident during install. worst case you can reboot the machine.

The thing about this is the error says the ps is 16915 but ps -e has no ps 16915.... I just checked again. :)

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.
