   I don't often use chromium, but have not had any issues before now in
invoking it. Now, I get these errors:

[rshepard at salmo ~]$ chromium
[10728:10728:0415/152330:ERROR:shared_memory_posix.cc(232)] Creating shared
memory in /dev/shm/.org.chromium.Chromium.QBKQk0 failed: Permission denied
[10728:10728:0415/152330:ERROR:shared_memory_posix.cc(235)] Unable to

[10728:10728:0415/152330:FATAL:shared_memory_posix.cc(237)] This is
frequently caused by incorrect permissions on /dev/shm.  Try 'sudo chmod
1777 /dev/shm' to fix.

   Currently installed are chromium-41.0.2272.101-i486-1alien and chromium-pepperflash-plugin-17.0.0.134-i386-1alien
from Eric's Slackware repository.

   Suggestions about where to look for a solution needed as /dev/shm is not
available when I try to display permissions.
