I recommend dropping your drupal database (since I doubt its worked
right if the objects are owned by postgres), and recreate it owned by
the drupaluser, then let the drupaluser populate it during the initial
install.

or, if I'm misreading your problem, and drupal itself is running but
this is an extra non-drupal table you manually created, then ALTER TABLE
.... OWNER drupaluser;

drupal doesn't really interface very well to non-drupal data... the
drupal approach is to define a new content type with the fields you
need, then populate it via create content, choosing that new type, or
use the various drupal APIs from your custom PHP modules.
