Hi, Ken!

   I used inadequate options to 'ls' (forgot the 'a') so saw nothing. The
problem as the failure message showed is permissions:

[rshepard@salmo ~]$ ls -hal /dev/shm/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   40 Mar 14 12:31 ./
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 5.4K Apr 16 05:37 ../

   For some reason perms on /dev/shm/ were changed from 777 to 755 at some
time since I last invoked chromium. So, chmod to 777 fixes the problem.

   As an aside, leave it to Google to use ctrl-shift-q to exit the
application when the standard is ctrl-q. Sigh.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction,

Rich
