I just noticed I have *a lot of* tty/pty files in dev:

obelix ~ # ls -l /dev/pty* | wc -l

obelix ~ # ls -l /dev/tty* | wc -l
325

They have names from /dev/ptya0 till /dev/ptyzf, then
pty0-pty63, and ttya0-ttyzf. Is this normal? I thought
udev creates device-files as they are needed, so I'm
surprised to see so much of them...

Seems to be normal, I get the same output on two of my Gentoo machines.

Same thing here. It's a old install so I expected some old things before udev took over. I guess udev cleaned it up some.
Seems normal tho.
