I was able to catch another proper detection so now I have a good detection
and a failure with debug at highest level.

Good detection:
10/23 16:11:17 yS1  detecting voice modem type
10/23 16:11:17 yS1    vgetty: ATE0
10/23 16:11:17 yS1    serial port: OK

10/23 16:11:18 yS1    serial port: OK
10/23 16:11:18 yS1   voice command: 'ATI' -> ''
10/23 16:11:18 yS1    vgetty: ATI
10/23 16:11:18 yS1    serial port: 5601
10/23 16:11:18 yS1  US Robotics detected
10/23 16:11:19 yS1    US Robotics: OK

Failure:
10/23 16:17:51 yS1  detecting voice modem type
10/23 16:17:51 yS1    vgetty: ATE0
10/23 16:17:51 yS1    serial port: OK

10/23 16:17:51 yS1    serial port: (1.0USR3020\\Modem\PNPC107\U.S. Robotics 56K

10/23 16:17:52 yS1    serial port: OK
10/23 16:17:52 yS1   voice command: 'ATI' -> ''
10/23 16:17:52 yS1    vgetty: ATI
10/23 16:17:52 yS1    serial port: ATI
10/23 16:17:52 yS1    serial port: 5601
10/23 16:17:52 yS1    serial port: OK
10/23 16:17:53 yS1  no voice modem detected

After the successful detection I did try calling and was connected. My greeting
was played, I was given a beep. I then left my test message which was
properly captured by vgetty/vm. Vgetty then went back into it's initialization
cycle and resumed it's inability to detect the voice modem. If I could get
vgetty to accurately detect I would probably be in business.
