How do I pipe serial output to a text file in Linux?

I have an Arduino Uno reading temp and humidity via a SHT-15. The output in the Arduino IDE serial monitor looks great - My problem is piping this output to a text file or whatever on the LinuxMint computer the Arduino is connected to via USB. I had the same Arduino connected to an old Eee PC and this command worked great:

ttylog -b 38400 -d /dev/ttyUSB0 -f | tee /home/holotone/temphumidity/results.txt 2>&1

...but on the newer computer it's connected to now the output only produces a stream of garbage. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? ttylog is installed, ttyUSB0 is the correct device, and 38400 is set as the correct baud rate.

Thanks!

You could try using a different monitor program (such as PuTTY) which can save what it receives to a file. That way you can see what is happening.
