Sounds like you built it after you built your kernel. The devpts
filesystem is really a pseudo-module; you can only use the module if
you built the kernel proper with CONFIG_DEVPTS_FS=m. The reason it is
available as a module at all is for testing purposes.

I recommend compiling it into the kernel unless you're doing special
stuff.
