If you're just interactively typing commands, plain old "cu" should work fine:
cu -l /dev/cua1 -s 38400
You could also compile C-Kermit for Linux if you have any kermit scripts from
the HP box that you wish to use.

/dev/ttyS* and /dev/cua* are both options. The cua* device is typically used
with modems but in this application it shouldn't really matter .
