Hello Vasily,
your solution works flawless.
Now I can ssh to the VPS.
But not ssh -X 
The origin of the trouble was the attempt to install gnome on a vps.
As you understand I am not such of an expert, but I guess configuration about this is correct about X and ssh x forwarding, as I use it on other servers, virtual and hardware..
There could be something more about devices or should I dig somewhere else? Hint?
BTW I think the solution about udev messing up /dev on Debian could be a FAQ or be placed in Wiki.
More about udev. By "normal" I was meaning I was surprised about seeing all devices in private vps area while seeing the reported situation in its running environment. But I guess it's my misunderstanding of udev behavior.
Is it correct to have different output of:
ls -l /vz/private/ID/dev
vzctl exec ID ls -l /dev
Last as I told before while ssh is mandatory I don't really need to have gnome on the vps. But the episode raised my fear about upgrade policies for vps. This time I had problem installing gnome but there could be some more dependencies problem hiding somewhere?
Regards and thank you for help.
Tb
