I have just installed Google Chrome on a vanilla almost default Squeeze/LXDE

click on icon in menu - nothing happens
launch from launcher - command is accepted, but launcher then hangs
run from terminal - command is accepted, but terminal then hangs
run from terminal with complete path (/usr/bin/google-chrome) - command is
accepted, but terminal then hangs
Run from root terminal - error message comes up:

At least the last one tells you what's wrong :-)
I'd try running it with strace, in an effort to see what it's trying and
failing to do.
$ strace google-chrome
You might need to install the strace package first, of course.
