Hello,

You can find the serial HowTo at the http://www.linux.org site in the
Support / HowTo section it is quite a ways down the page. 

That is what I used and got it working quite well.  The only problem I
have ran into with it is that my other machine occasionally sends random
junk out the serial port and would cause a Serial overrun I think that is
what it said.
