Sorry.  The devices directory is "/lib/udev/devices".

udev seems to be mostly working AFAICT.  When I plug/unplug USB or 
firewire, I can see events being processed with udevadm monitor.

There is no shm or pts directory shown in /proc/devices.  Should there be?

There is also lots of information in the /run directory tree.
