Ok, assuming you've undone the damage to /lib/udev/devices/null, could
you please reboot your machine until you have a /dev/null with only 0600
permissions.
Could you note whether it takes any longer to boot than usual?
>From that boot, please attach /var/log/udev
Also please run "udevtest /clas
Have just read this bug properly -- and I note all the problems are with
dapper. This problem has been fixed and should not occur in edgy.

PLEASE IGNORE THE PREVIOUS COMMENT!
DO NOT ALTER THE PERMISSION OF /lib/udev/devices/null
IF YOU HAVE DONE SO, PLEASE PUT IT BACK TO 0600

I have found that the problem lies in the udev package, which has
/lib/udev/devices/null
set to the wrong permission.
Just change the permission of this file to a+rw and at the next boot
/dev/null
will have the same permission.

I can also confirm on kubuntu dapper. Permissions also get reset after
reboot like Michael Hirsch. Also, I checked
/etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules and have 'KERNEL=="null",
MODE="0666"' as it should be.

Just for those meeting this problem, here is my procedure to login.
A better one would be to find which script sets /dev/null to crw-- just
after boot!
After booting, when the login screen appears, I type Alt+Ctrl+F1 to get a
console.
Then I login as user and:
$ sudo chmod a+rw /dev/null
This happens to me, too. This is pretty critical because the permission
seem to get reset to 600 after a reboot, so X never starts up
successfully.
