The command is kinda wrong.  See this:

marvin:~> ls -l /dev | grep 10,
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       10,   3 Jan  1  1970 atimouse
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       10,   4 Jan  1  1970 jmouse
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       10,   0 Jan  1  1970 logimouse
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       10,   2 Jan  1  1970 msmouse
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       10,   1 Jan  1  1970 psmouse
