        I still got this error in 2021 when I installed chromium in retropie using zerojay/RetroPie-Extra, so i thought i'd chime in with my fix that worked after looking at other's comments and suggestions.
        I needed to set the /dev/tty* files/folders to be readable.
        so in commandline;
        cd /dev/
        sudo chmod 666 tty*

        hope this helps someone.
