The port configuration is done through the "setserial" program. Do a "man 8 setserial". When I used to get on the Internet with a modem it worked great. I'm not sure if setserial will work with wine though. Setserial generally works with the COM ports.

I am under the belief that the current 2.6.27 (fedora 9 64) use polling to process interrupts. I'm not sure how setserial can install an interrupt driven driver. I currently have all my serial ports (and parallel) turned off in my BIOS.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
