Here are some ideas:
Running: apt-cache search serial terminal
cyclades-serial-client - Network Serial port client software for
Cyclades terminal servers
gkermit - A serial and network communications package
gtkterm - A simple GTK+ serial port terminal
kpsk - PSK31 transmission mode Terminal for KDE3
minicom - friendly menu driven serial communication program
screen - a terminal multiplexor with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation
ser2net - Allows network connections to serial ports
socat - multipurpose relay for bidirectional data transfer
termnetd - Terminal Server daemon
ckermit - a serial and network communications package

Of these, I know minicom works, I use it to send 'atdt' to my modem if
it wont hangup. Also, folks at my local wireless group use it to work
with embeded soekris boards.
