Maybe /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1 instead?
AFAIK the cua devices are obsolete and replaced by the ttyS ones.

Maybe
$_ports = "device /dev/ttyS0 0x3f8"
could work? But don't apply these two techniques together and the first
one (with $_com1) is recommended.
A debug port scan could also provide a clue:
dos -D+i -O
