   linux question where I figure someone might have the answer on the top of their head:
   I have like three microcontrollers plugged into one system and they're all acting as serial ports, so I get /dev/ttyACM0 and ttyACM1 and ttyACM2:
   How can I tell which one is which? like, spelunk into /sys/ and figure out the pid/vid of each?

     @wouter I'm writing some software to use on a machine I don't own: no access to root. So that's not doable

     @foone
     Don't understand this part. Why is this not an option?
     
     (Yes, I saw you have a solution, but you can't nerdsnipe people like that and then leave them hanging 😉)
