For future searches, you can use Google with
'site:lists.alioth.debian.org nut-upsdev OR nut-upsuser' and then your
search string. Not pretty, but it works.

In addition to Arjen's suggestions, have you checked that Gentoo is
actually calling the serial port /dev/ttyS0? It might be /dev/tts/0,
depending on how they populate the /dev directory. I don't know if we
have too many Gentoo users among the developers, so please let us know
so that we can update the documentation.
