I'd might even try have a go on this but moving the sources to github or something similar would make providing a pull request much smoother.
Any chance?
Alternativly: Any recommendation for a similar software?

I use USB to RS232 converter. I can use minicom to open /dev/ttyUSB0, but I can't do it in cutecom.

I remember having requested this, even proposed to do it myself :)
I must admit, I was just too lazy :-(
and, of course, not sure if I would have succeeded with my limited qt-programming skills.
so, a big thanks to you, Alex!

keep up the good work, KDE is in desperate need of such a tool.
But could you please change the open device dropdown field into a text input field?
I had to hack cutecommdlg.ui because my modem driver uses a non standard tty device (/dev/ttySL0).
