Minicom might be a good starting point, and it sounds like you've tried all the obvious TTYs.

My Thinkpad required me to enable the serial port from the DOS setup utility (on a bootable floppy) before it would talk. Windows can enable it directly, but if you want to do that under Linux you need to get tpctl .
