Linux, open /dev/modem and communicate ?

Is there any good examples (the one in the PerlFAQ isn't good) of how to
open up a /dev/ttyXX standard serial port, set the speed, then
read/write to/from it then close it ?

I am trying to write a caller-id logging program in perl, but so far
Linux serial port programming is proving more elusive than the Win32
stuff I have already got working.

Thanks
