   Well, it was quiet simple.

   Currently I'm using GNU Screen for several reasons:

     - its 'detach' feature;
     - it can handle all tty devices such as serial tty;
     - I can run emacs in one buffer and a shell in an other.

   I was trying to get rid of GNU Screen in order to do all my tasks in
   emacs, hence my question: try to open /dev/ttyS with emacs.

   But I found emacs terminal emulation quiet bad, for example frequently
   the '\n' character has no effect and all lines are echoed on the same
   line. Also I loose some of bash key bindings.

   Hope that answers to your question.

Not really. Maybe I misunderstand what you are doing. What is the
goal behind this task ?

Sorry to bother.
