an error has occured: Error connecting to the server: FATAL: IDENT authentication occured for user "myusername"That's because PSQL by default uses a unix socket and your previous email showed you were using a network socket for PGADMIN. Which is fine, except that the latter has to use the IDENT network service to figure out who you are. If PSQL is working and PGADMIN is not, I would suspect that you don't have a working identd running yet. Either install one, eg apt-get install pidentd or tell pgadmin3 to use a unix socket (see list archives under my name).
Unix sockets are not supported in 1.2; will be in 1.4. Edit postgresql.conf to use md5 instead of ident solves this too.
