Hyperterminal-like console in coLinux, need suggession.

Hi,
  I want to work with rs232 serial terminal like in windows
hyperterminal. My device is connected via com4 port and
already work
well on hyperterminal. How can I do the same in coLinux. I
am using
Gentoo 2006.1

  As you can see below that I got my COM4 mapped to ttys0
but I don't
know how to start using it. please suggest me command to
test that
port is working in coLinux and command to login to my device
using
that port. Which package should I emerge ?

This is my config file.

ro

ttys0=COM1,"BAUD=115200 PARITY=n DATA=8 STOP=1 dtr=on

minicom would be a start, if that exists in gentoo
Usually a user that wants to use a serial line in linux must
be member
of the group uucp.
