Mostly.  There are some devices that are required.  I think npx is the
only one, but is is shown by dmesg.

No, it is found on FreeBSD as well.  Just add the proper option for it
(found in LINT and now more recently in GENERIC).  Generally it is
used for X programs that want to share bitmaps, but other things do
sometimes use it.
