the output of probemodem is below. minicom continues to function both
before and after the command (atz returns OK). by the way the path to
fuser is /bin/fuser and there are no processes using this device before
running probemodem, but when I kill probemodem it leaves a '/bin/stty
clocal' running.

ben@server1a:~$ sudo /usr/sbin/probemodem -s 9600 -c atz ttyACM0
Hmm, there does not appear to be an fuser command on your machine.
This means that I am unable to ensure that all processes using the
modem have been killed.  I will keep going, but beware that you may
have competition for the modem.

Now we are going to probe the tty port.  This takes a few seconds,
so be patient.  Note that if you do not have the modem cabled to
the port, or the modem is turned off, this may hang (just go and
cable up the modem or turn it on, or whatever).

Using user-specified 9600 to talk to modem.

Hmm, something seems to be hung, check your modem eh?
