Chromium seems to be running normally. Google searches work OK on it.
The output to the terminal before it runs is as follows: mikef@fart:~/gentoo/etc/portage$ /home/mikef/gentoo/usr/bin/chromium /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 2: distribution:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 3: import_bookmarks:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 4: import_bookmarks_from_file:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 5: make_chrome_default:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 6: make_chrome_default_for_user:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 7: verbose_logging:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 8: skip_first_run_ui:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 9: create_all_shortcuts:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 10: suppress_first_run_default_browser_prompt:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 11: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 12: browser:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 13: show_home_button:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 14: has_seen_welcome_page: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 15: check_default_browser: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 16: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 17: profile:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 18: default_content_setting_values:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 19: payment_handler:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 21: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 22: bookmark_bar:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 23: show_on_all_tabs:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 24: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 25: net:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 26: network_prediction_options:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 27: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 28: search:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 29: suggest_enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 30: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 31: signin:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 32: allowed:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 33: allowed_on_next_startup:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 34: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 35: autofill:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 36: profile_enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 37: credit_card_enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 38: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 39: payments:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 40: can_make_payment_enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 41: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 42: safebrowsing:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 43: enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 44: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 45: dns_prefetching:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 46: enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 47: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 48: alternate_error_pages:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 49: enabled:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 50: },: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 51: credentials_enable_service:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 52: credentials_enable_autosignin:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 53: default_apps:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 54: hide_web_store_icon:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 55: homepage_is_newtabpage:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 56: homepage:: command not found /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 57: syntax error near unexpected token `}' /etc/chromium/master_preferences: line 57: `}' [4331:4398:0628/102340.984813:ERROR:bus.cc(394)] Failed to connect to the bus: Failed to connect to socket /home/mikef/gentoo/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory [4331:4561:0628/102341.204404:ERROR:bus.cc(394)] Failed to connect to the bus: Could not parse server address: Unknown address type (examples of valid types are "tcp" and on UNIX "unix") [4409:4409:0628/102341.258081:ERROR:sandbox_linux.cc(369)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.

Many thanks. PS Before I did this I tried installing chromium in debian. It ran OK. I tried running the gentoo prefix chromium to see if the successful sandbox setup for the debian chromium might help the gentoo prefix one to work in some way. It did not seem to help. But the chmod 4755 command did........ Cheers Regards MF > > >
