I am somewhat surprised to find so many devices in /dev when using udev
(on Sid):
% ls /dev|wc -l
662
More than 600 entries in /dev is hardly the lean mean /dev promised by
udev...
Under other Linux distros I've ended up with _far_fewer_ devices. Are
all devices in /dev created by udev under Debian, or is there some other
tool that creates additional ones?
How can I get rid of the ones I don't need?
