13 It sounds like your udev rules are screwed. My defaults are
14
15 KERNEL=="pty[pqrstuvwxyzabcdef][0123456789abcdef]",NAME="%k", GROUP="tty",OPTIONS="last_rule"
16 KERNEL=="null",NAME="%k", MODE="0666"
17
18 Re-emerging udev should fix this, let etc-update/dispatch-conf replace
19 /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules.
