You can even download the free Arduino IDE (arduino.cc) and use the
simple pulldown menu (Tools->Serial Port) to find the serial port.
Sometimes I have to run Arduino as root (sudo arduino) to get full
access to the port. This is a bug on my laptop, because I don't have
this problem on all my Linux machines, but I'm mentioning it in case it
bites you as well.
(Yes, I checked that I'm in the dialout group or whatever it's called)

I am trying to find the FTDI USB<--> RS232 drivers that would work with
this setup and hopefully a how-to with instructions for setting up the
driver (I am not a Linux guru).
If plugging it in doesn't work, its not a real FTDI. check dmesg. The
full swath of FTDIchip devices are supported in-kernel on recent
(read; 2.6.24+) systems.
Arduino uses them. Simply plug in and find your new /dev/tty(ACM|S)[0-9]+
