Drivers don't live in /dev (unless the vendor is particularly stupid,
and Keyspan isn't).

Device special files, which are your "handle" to a particular hardware
device, live in /dev.  Once you unplug the keyspan device, the device
special file entries should go away.

What particular file are you trying to remove?
