It's been a while, but I recall having a similar problem.
Here are some things to check:
* The Postgres DBD (DBI "sub-driver") is installed correctly.
* Try putting Pg.pm in one of the "site-perl" dirs listed in @INC.
* Pg.pm has the right permissions.
* Can you load other modules from the same dir that Pg.pm is in?

Sometimes the DBI-related error messages are misleading or just plain wrong.

If all that fails, post the location of Pg.pm and the value of @INC:
$ locate Pg.pm
$ perl -e "print \"@INC\n\";"
