I'd suggest that you first reset all the changes you made to defaults. I just happen to use a laptop with CentOS to connect to Sun serial ports and it works without changes, -although I use a USB to serial adaptor, since the laptop doesn't have a serial port.
Let's start with some questions first..
Is this connection serial to serial, USB to serial? Are you sure you are plugged into serial A in the Sun box? How are you connecting: tip, screen, minicom? Why are you using fiber for this? and last, what exactly is the purpose of this connection?
