Sorry for the false alarm. It happened after I installed 010
and by mistake also commented "export ACTIONd" in rc.udev
since I'm on Slackware.
BTW, I'm not sure if it's a problem, but udev created ptmx with
the following permissions:
crw------- 1 root root 5, 2 Dez 23 20:31 ptmx
devfs creates it with:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 5, 2 Dez 23 20:34 ptmx
devs-2.3.1-noarch-18.tgz from Slackware:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 Abr 21 1999 ptmx
Yesterday, when I booted with only udev screen didn't work as
an user (No more PTYs). I got it working changing to 666. But
then for some reason ssh and rxvt didn't work as an user, and I
went back to devfs. I'll try to see what was wrong with the
others.
