Is this an RPM install or a .tar.gz install?
If an RPM install, try, as root:
service pgsql start
Note that pgsql may not be the name, it could be something else. look for
a file in /etc/rc.d/init.d with a name that seems like postgresql and
substitute it for pgsql above.
If it is a tar.gz install, you'll have to create an account (or use one
that already exists) to 'initdb', set PGDATA and 'pg_ctl start' or
'postmaster -i -D datadir'
