ptys suddenly missing with udev

[harry_b]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi there,

I have a Debian unstable system with kernel 2.6.8.1 and udev running and 
until about 2 weeks ago everything was fine.

Then, after running 'apt-get upgrade' one day, I was no longer able to 
login the the box anymore. Within X I can not open any terminals and I can 
not login to the box using ssh.

All I get in /var/log/auth.log are these messages:

sshd: Accepted publickey for  from ...
sshd: (pam_unix) session opened for user  by (uid=0)
sshd: error: openpty: No such file or directory
sshd: error: session_pty_req: session 0 alloc failed

Somehow the directory /dev/pts seems to be missing but I am not sure when 
udev actually is supposed to create this directory. There is an entry in 
/etc/udev/links.conf though.

What could be wrong with udev?

Any hints or ideas where to look would be very welcome!

TIA,
  Harry

svgatextmode question

[harry_b]

Hi everybody,

I have a question regarding svgatextmode.

I installed a new HDD in my notebook and installed a fresh SID system on 
it. Everything works nicely except that I can't get svgatextmode working 
again like it did before.

The notebook has a neomagic graphics chipset (Neomagic Corporation NM2200 
[MagicGraph 256AV] (rev 32)) and svgatextmode works almost well, except 
that the cursor is missing on bootup.
When I restart it (/etc/init.d/svgatextmode restart) I get the cursor back 
for the current console. The other consoles stay without cursor though.

In /etc/TextConfig I have the line
Cursor 26-31
which seem to define a propper cursor.
I also had to create the file /etc/default/STM_nocheckfb to get it working 
at all.

Before my complete new Debian installation (was also SID) it worked like a 
charm and I don't remember that I had to do anything to get it working.

Does any2 have an idea what might be wrong?

TIA, Harry
