Thanks Tom. Yeah, I heard that an older version PostgreSQL was used. So if I
just use a different port number, and not try replacing the version that
comes with the OS, everything should work fine? How do I start PostgreSQL on
a different port (and which would you recommend)? Thanks.

Oh.  I think Cobalt has a Postgres (6.5.something?) installed as part of
the OS.  You'll need to pick a different port number than 5432 to avoid
conflicting with the system's server.

BTW, I've heard that people tried to replace the built-in Postgres with
newer releases and had troubles, so I don't recommend trying that unless
you're ready to do some debugging.
